Not a nice topic I no but I'm 9 days post op from a gastric band but I have trouble going the loo I have only been once since my op an had to take a laxative to go tried taking another laxative 2 days ago an nothing is this normal after the op is it because I'm only on liquids an there's nothing going in ? Or should I go an see my doctor has this happened to anyone else

 

[lilypersian]

Hey Karen,
this is completely normal! I was very regular and feels strange to not be going every day. Invest in some dulcolax or lactulose to help you along, until you can rely on healthy food to make you go!!!
Think most of us bandits have suffered with constipation! Drink as much water as you can manage, this will help!

Thanks lily took some delcolax 4 days after my op worked well took some more 2 days ago an nothing don't want to take another till I'm off work Sunday as you say just feels strange not going but you have put my mind at rest more water for me
