I am 4 days past surgury and today has been a great day, for the most part. I am feeling just a little tired but that is to be expected. I could really REALLY do without the explosive diareha. How long does this last? Between that and the gas I am still working out I am too scared to leave my bedroom. Please tell me this ends!!!

I think I would wish for the explosive diarrehea at this point, as I am 6 days out and constipated. I know I am not taking in enough liquids, but I just can't get the fluids down.

Well actually had Milk of Magnesia today, the pharmacist said it wouldn't react with my medicine. Also had about 10oz soup, 8oz water, and two ice pops.
Guess what, two hours later, bam the explosion. Had to go into the shower after that, but the pain was gone. LOL

I had it, too...YUCK! It is just all those liquids running right through you! Just think of the weight you are losing...lol. I still have it a little, but I think adding just those few solids to my diet helped a TON! And this, too, shall pass.....

I still can't get down protein drinks but practically melted a Ritz cracker in my tasty, salty chicken boullion today.
I am at work, so sucking down tea and boullion. Had a hot chocolate, but still can't stomach anything heavier.
Oh, and no explosion or pluggage today.  :speechles
