One week post-op

Tomorrow will be one week since my surgery and I'm doing great for the most part. My biggest issue is wanting and needing to have a bowel movement. Ugh. I'm ready to start eating solid food again just for that!

What are people taking to help with this issue?

@@cajunbebe Drink some "smooth move " tea! It is organic and it really works, you can get it at most stores. Drink it before you go to bed and you should be good to go in the morning. It's the best thing I've tried And decaf!

From what I've seen people use smooth move tea, colace, benefiber, milk of magnesia, miralax & prune juice. I once did a detox and used 1 tsp of epsom slats in 4 ounces or organic grapfruit juice. Worked like a charm.
