diarrhea?

micahb07 · October 27, 2007

Ok sorry for the graphic but I am having terriable diarrhea since day 3. It doesn't seem to be coorelated to any paticular food, I even went back to clears to confirm this. I am wondering if this may just be a side effect that some have for a while? I spiked a low grade temp earlier. I have spoke with my phycision, he's understandably more concerned about the fever. Have any of you had the diarrhea during your healing process???

Oh, boy that is an understatement! liquid in - Liquid out! (or mushy too) Sorry to be so graphic, but that is the way it was for me! It will get better soon though!

Yes, I had that too... but I have a really sensitive tummy and and change in diet sets me off. I would rather habe this issue than the Constipation everyone warns about.

I only just started having normal BM's again and that isn't consistant!

I, too, had diarrhea post-op. Mine was due to the antibiotics given me during the surgery. The antibiotics can kill off the normal bacteria found in your colon. If allowed, try yogurt for a couple of your meals. I also asked if I could take a couple of acidophilus capsules that I had from a health food store (previous problems w/post-antibiotic diarrhea!). Both of these helped me. Good luck!
