Everyone says that you'll be constipated after surgery, but I'm the opposite. Crampy, painful, diarrhea! What is happening? I am 11 days out, and only on full liquids.

Hmmmm....????....I have no idea....I have the opposite problem....maybe check and see if there is sucrose in any of the foods you're eating? It can cause serious gastrointestinal issues. Same thing for sucralose or aspartame.

This happened to me. One day I was in the toilet 7 times. I was fine once I started eating purée now I am constipated. I think it's just a shock to the stomach they told me I could take 1 Imodium if I felt I needed to stop in order not to be dehydrated.

Are you eating anything with "sugar alcohol" aka xylitol, sorbitol, etc.? That stuff was like the express train to Diarrhea Town before getting sleeved. I bet with a tiny pouch for a stomach, it would mess you up.

I thought that is what co sidered dumping syndrome.

I have only had yogurt, chicken broth, sugar free popsicles and jello, so I am not sure.
