Hi Maureen! I had my surgery Dec 3. And I, too have had constipation issues. I tried Gerber Baby Food Prunes and that seems to have helped. And I NEVER ignore the slightest of urges anymore! That also seems to help me because I tend to wait until I am really ready. How are you doing? You can respond to my email if you would like. [email protected] Good luck! Allisyn

Best Wishes for a successful surgery and smooth recovery! Weigh to go! I just read another post from someone who just had surgery and the thing that hurts the most is their BACK. And it is PAINFUL, not just uncomfortable. THE LAST THING YOU NEED TO TELL YOUR SURGEON, BEFORE THEY PUT YOU UNDER, IS TO PUT SOMETHING UNDER YOUR KNEES TO TAKE THE PRESSURE OFF YOUR BACK!!! Time and time again folks are coming out of the O.R. and their back is killing them. It’s because you are lying flat on your back for hours on a hard surface. How long can you do that now? If the surgeon will just put a rolled up blanket under your knees this problem will be eliminated! Got It?... Good…. Problem solved. (Or at least talk it over with him/her).
