Bowels

Hi!!!!! I'm new here...I have not been sleeved yet. I want to know has the sleeve helped you have a bowel movement or is it harder?

    The first 6 weeks after surgery I had the di di's like you would not believe. The PA at my surgeons office was surprised and said that was rare though. Most people according to her are bound up beyond belief. Well, about week 6 or 7 when I started eating pretty normal again, I joined forces with the rest. Im going to have to start taking something for it, because aim only going about twice a week now :/

    Hi. I had my gastric bypass on 11/11. One small complication of seeping but it resolved itself. On full liquid/purée diet. Yesterday I used a glycerine suppository. Quick, easy no problems. I am very tired and hope my energy returns soon.
