Alt,

Sorry to hear about your "issue".

I almost wound up in the ER with the same problem.

Please do yourself a favor, pound the Water, start on Miralax (one dose/day) and Coalce (2-3/day).

That was the regimen that my surgeon recommended and saved my life.

Feel better.

And at 72 I have to really try to overcome this. Miralax 2x daily, MoM evening of 2nd day. See I'm on prolonged liquids because of Stricture and ulcers also try to ⬆column of fluids. Things💩softish but infrequent, nothing spontaneous! 😪💦😪💦

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
