I think we all have/had issues with that one. I know I sure am. I think I found my cure. Hot prune juice and warm pears. Been munching on dry fiber cereal. Today was a happy day. . It takes a bit to trust Ur stomach enough to relax. I'm just now making that progress. .. Gasx for gas pains.

It gets better. I was able to poop on day 5. I took Miralax and some stool softners and the occasional drink of prune juice. Also, keep drinking lots of water. I am now 6 days post op.
