Im about three weeks post op. I tend to go from constipated to full on liquid runs. Back a and forth. Its weird to me. And I am on colace. Anyone else have similar issues?

I am two weeks out and I am the same. I've only had one solid bowel movement the rest are liquid. I'm not sure if it's all the liquids I've been on.

I am 3 1/2 weeks out. I rarely have liquid runs and really only have bowel movement every other day.  However, DH did make me a sugar free smoothie the other day and it did me in for an entire evening of runs.  I'm blaming the banana because I'm not supposed to have raw fruit yet.

Good luck - I know it is annoying.

I take Miralax nightly, I find it the best but gentle softener out there. Colace here (in my area of the country) is reserved for people with significant bowel issues. I would not take it all the time unless I was getting impacted. That is ME, not saying you should not take it, but you might want to look at something a little more mild.
