Just a helpful tip for those of you that suffer from constipation. I was constipated for 3 weeks straight. I had taken 4 gallons of Go Lyte Le, 6 bottles of magnesium citrate, gastrograph, 4 water enemas and several suppositories. NOTHING WORKED!! Finally I was reading a blog and a women who was in the same place as me and also had surgery swore if you drank 1 Mountain Dew it would work. Well I know I'm not supposed to have soda or sugar but was desperate. I did it and oh my goodness IT WORKED!!!

I have found that Colace 100 helps and it was recommended by my surgeon. Their gentle and can be taken daily. I take two a day.

I drank a Diet Mountain Dew and it worked great without the sugar!

Does the diet Mountain Dew have to be carbonated or can it be flat?

It should be carbonated

No there was no dumping

I tried "mom" but was told today to try restoralax for a few days till i get past the soft food diet

Sensocrat at night can help and after 1 year triphala is good for staying regular.
