Hi everyone I'm banded since last saturday and haven't pooed yet is this normal & today iv become quite bloated ??

All replies welcome. ;)
 
I had a bypass and I didn't go for a week. My advice would be to go and get some sennakot or some dulcalax and take it before you go to bed tonight. You should go to the loo in the morning then :)

Thanks Paula ;) wasn't sure if it was because on Drinks only I will head off for some now x
 
Hi

How much fluid are you consuming in a day, you need to ensure you are drinking a minimum of 2 litres a day or you will risk constipation, and that is not a good thing especially if you end up impacted and have to go to A&E for a manual evacuation. Hope the thought of that has scared you enough.

For me the only thing that worked was either Dulcolax Suppositories or Glycerine Suppositories, 30 minutes and job done.

Just remember water, water and more water.

Thanks Paul scared for life now lol ;)
 
I bought dulcoease, more gentle than some of them (green and silver pack) and only needed one, but it does help. But it is normal, but drink plenty of fluids and as you're on liquids only try to include a fruit or vegetable juice once a day as this will help too :)
