Hi Tallulah

I only had my first proper number 2 today - 6 days after my op!

I have been having slimfast, soup and runny custard - if you are only having 1 slimfast, cup soup and water you probably don't have much inside of you to come out!

I am still feeling bloated and swollen, but my provider says this is from the surgery and will go down in about 10-14 days. You may want to check with your provider about a laxative if you are finding it painful - mine said I could if I needed to (not fibregel(??) tho) but I would check with yours first as it might be different.

Hope you get sorted soon

Hiya hun. I was bypassed in may. And I was the same way when I drank. In time you will get yourself back to normal. Even now I can only drink out of a small tea cup. And I didn't go for a number 2 for about a week after. I hope you taken some laxative. It can be a bit painful if you don't. Good luck hunny x

My advice is get something from your gp to get your bowels moving, don't leave it because it will hurt!!

I have had to resort in using Lactulose to to help me it does work, fortunately most laxatives come in liquid form Movacol is another one! I was under the weather for a week or so. But then started to get better. It's true what they say in this case time heals.

I'm feeling exactly the same as the OP at the moment so after reading the above I'm deffo gonna have a trip to the chemist for some laxatives.

Its quite interesting listening to all the awful gurgling sounds my stomach is making though. Like a mad professors laboratory!! lol
