What have you taken for....?

constipation? Did any of your surgeons tell you what you can take? I just tried eating oatmeal and hope that it helps, but I think I may have to make a trip to CVS for something. Please help.

Ok- Nevermind. I read a previous post and took off to CVS to pick up some MOM. Can I say ? Ugh! I sure hope this works!

Hopefully you got the mint flavored kind? It's not too bad and it should help! Good luck!

I have the same problem. Do you take the same amount as it says or how much do you take? Of the MOM?

You also might want to try Benefiber. I started taking that the start of my second week and am doing much better. They come in chewables wich taste like oranges...not bad.

They told us at our pre-op meeting not to take laxatives but that stool softeners are much better hun.... good luck.

I was told that too. But my nurse did allow me to take MOM once. But now she thinks I'm okay. ::hugs:: Cyndi
