diarrhea

So I've had constant diarrhea for the most part post op. Not dumping. Stool sample tests came back negative but there were white blood cells in it so I'm going to have to get a colonoscopy. (Which sucks, I did one pre op too). I'm nervous and freaking out. No idea what it could be (besides an infection of some sort).

    Hmmm my surgeon told me that it is normal to have constant diarrhea post op. maybe they are doing the colonoscopy bc of other risk factors?

    I send you my best wishes! Good luck.

    I had diahrea post op for 6 months straight. Mine was cured by taking my b12 sublingual. My doc said there was No medical explanation for it. I can tell the days I do not take it as I have diahrea.

    I've had constant diarrhea since surgery. I am lactose free. Get all my protein & fluids in-it just explodes out the other end! I so hope thi is not my life now. Curious what your doctor has to say after all the testing.
