When did you... go?
I had diarrhea for a week after surgery. Then got constipated. It maybe that since all you are taking in is fluids that you have nothing that needs to come out?
Maybe put a call in to the surgeon and ask what you should do.

I will share what happened to me in the hope it prevents you from experiencing it. My surgery was on jan 10. I came home on jan 12 and that night had an absolutely horrible time with extreme constipation. I was seriously considering going to the er but I took a healthy dose of Phillips milk of magnesia and within about an hour things began to move. I did have rocks and there were several more movements over the next twelve hours before total relief. I was told that the liquid they use for the leak tests plus anesthesia and pain meds together with your body being in shock all add up to what happened. Fortunately now nearly three weeks out no more episodes. Good luck and God bless.

I had constipation issues before surgery, but I was assured afterwards that wouldn't be a problem. Wrong! After 6 days, with no BM, I had to take milk of magnesia twice to get rid of the 'rocks'. A painful experience, that I do not want to have again! Now, I take Miralx, 2 colace and magnesium oxide daily and I go every other day.
