I don't understand what happened. The first four weeks after my surgery everything went well. I basically had no pain and no problems having a bm.I was going 3-4 times a day. YEAH!! I had my post op appt last Tuesday. My dr. said I healed real good, cut down to 100mg colace and stay on the added fiber, then a week later cut out the colace all together. I thought wonderful! I cut down the colace on Thursday and couldn't have a bm Friday. I upped my colace back to 200mg. I didn''t want to get into a strain situation. I couldn't go Sat. either. My abdoman was killing me and felt like menstrual cramps. I couldn't hardly stand the pressure either. I had already took all of the colace and fiber for the day and had drank plenty. I took a BIG dose of M.O.M. and still no results. I lyed in bed a while, but couldn't shake the discomfort. I got up and used a glycerin suppository and was finally able to go after a while. My pain decreased alot. Here it is Sunday night and I haven't been able to go all day again and my abdoman is starting to hurt. I really don't know what to do next.I never would have thought 10 months ago that bm's would be such a big deal. I don't know how long to wait this out to see if it gets better or if I should contact my dr. I have had enough of appts. and dr's and surgeries and tests, etc. All of my dr's have been nice, but I am tired of going to see them.
I will know this week when my tvt will be. It should be within the next couple weeks as a out patient procedure. I was offered biofeedback first, but know I would not follow through with it. I was hoping to get back to work not too much past the 8 weeks my gyn put me out for. With this bowel issue returning just like it was before my surgery I am not sure what in the heck is going to happen with me. It seems like there is always something going on medically since my hyst. I am still experiencing that thumping, gurgling, soreness in my lower left abdominal region. My gyn told me Tuesday he still thinks it is from adhesions. Just what I wanted to hear, although I have been thinking that too.It looks like I may be heading back to the colon rectal surgeon's office to see what is up. I am so tired of this.
