Try taking Senna S 1-2 tabs at night. This works great for me. Initially surgeon wanted me to take Milk of Magnesia but that did nothing for constipation. So he told me Senna S and if that doesn't work try Mirilax. You can buy these over the counter. The Mirilax is powder and you mix in a liquid and drink. This gave my diarrhea so I have found if I don't have a bm daily that night I just take the Senna and I go the next day. If you still can't go within the next 1-2 days you need to contact your doctor as bowel impaction is no fun and serious. Make sure you are drinking enough fluids and try adding some soft fruit if that is something you can have.
