Nice Avatar!

I didnt' start to have BM issues until about 3 months post op, and even with fiber sometimes it's like I don't go for a week and then go every day 3 times a day.

Becareful with fiber tabs/pills, you want to besure that when you take them you can drink the recommeded 8 to 10oz of liquid they require to work or it can cause things to get worse!!  Also, go to Sam's or Costco and buy the big bottle of stool softner and take them.  My husband only needs them once a day, but I need them 3 times a day.  They will help it not be as painful if you do get a little "backed up".  

My surgeon said if I could eat prunes or something like that it would be ok, and worse case, a capful of Miralax will do the trick.  

Good luck!  Feel better, I know it's no fun when you can't go.!

I'll vouch for the capful of Miralax doing the trick. That's what helped me a couple weeks ago when I was in dire straits. Since then, it's a stool softener twice daily, Miralax (MAYBE 1/2 cap 1-2 times a week), and Metamucil, usually 1 tsp once daily. Adds a few calories but totally worth it.
