TMI maybe but I need this answered!

Hello everyone, this might be to much information for you, but I need to know if anyone else had this happen. I am 6 days out and I started on my full liquids yesterday morning. Every since I have started eating full liquids, I have spent a LOT of time in the bathroom! Peeing yes, but almost every time I go pee I go the other way too. Needless to say my bum is starting to hurt. Is this normal?
Please let me know..sorry if it was to much for some.

Thanks

re: "my bum is starting to hurt. Is this normal?"

Normal that something rather overused becomes tender, yes.

Normal in that "liquids in, liquid outs"....yes....

Apparently you are well hydrated, or as some report, constipation becomes a problem about this point....

...your colon is passing non absorbed fluids as it should.....when you get to mushies and soft solids all BM functions return to normal....if it doesn't discuss with your surgeon and let us know!!!

I am afraid I had a similar experience. It will change with time. Sometimes the other way until your diet kind of levels out. Any way. Welcome to being banded andI hope you are doing better soon.
