Constipation.... This is the WORST!!!!

I'm 4 weeks out and the constipation is the absolute worst thing. I've been taking stool softeners, Miralax and now Milk of Magnesium. I don't know what else to do? Every time I try to go, it's like having a baby! HELP!! Any suggestions? If not, going to my Dr this week to hopefully get something prescribed.

  • Fiber one cheesecake bars + warm tea. Have one of those and it will clean you out quick fast. Works best for me and a few others. Also satisfied sweets craving. Good luck. Feel better. CW 214 VSG 1/6/

Me too I have tried everything. And even when I go which isn't too often, it's loose . My biggest problem is the pain. I barely function at work because the pain will last for an hour and comes back even more painful.

Are you getting the water in?

Constipation is always a problem. I use benefiber and a stool softener everyday. It works. I also make sure to eat my veggies and fruit beside proteins. I put benefiber in my protein shake. Don't even notice it.
