Hi. I am wondering if anyone who has had surgery had constipation after surgery? I had surgery 9/22/16, and have NOT had a normal bowel movement....like not at all!! My last BM was 10/27/16 (I take notes) and that was due to two laxatives and lots of prayers, and I felt like I needed to go bad. I do not feel bloated, do not feel pain, I pass gas normally (hehe), sometimes I feel like I have to go, but just pass gas and I feel better. I have tried to eat prunes, drink prune juice, am putting benefiber in my water, I am eating/drinking 60-80 grams of protein daily, drinking at least 50-60 oz of water. I am not sure what is going on. I don't really want to go to a dr. unless it is urgent (since my insurance sucks and would have to pay for everything they do to me....)
Anyone have any ideas? Advice? I am not sure if I should start to get worried.
