Magnesium supplements are the best way to get your bowels moving! I have IBS-Constipation. Ive been trying things for 8 years. Gas pain, is the worst as it amplifies the problem! Magnesium in some people take 1-2 days to fully work. My mother needs very little and it works right away.

Re: 11 days post hysterectomy 1/24: No bowel movement since surgery - UPDATED 2/6!
Ive always kept Magnesium Citrate on hand at home for constipation. Especially if I was going to need it before (bowel prep) surgery and afterwards (Anesthesia/Pain meds) It is always effective, quick, cheap and can be found at any pharmacy. It looks like a glass bottle of soda. I can't believe no one else has remembered this wonderful source of relief.... So many people on here wouldn't have had to have suffered.
Of course, I'm not a physician but I don't believe many of us on here, are but that's what this is all about. Sharing our stories and what has helped us in our time of need, so call your Doc and ask him if it's ok.
Every doctor I've always had reminds me to keep it on hand, so it must not be too bad. I have 6 major surgeries.
