any advice will be appreciated ! x

had op on monday still not being able to go to the toilet, took some senna last night and still cant go, my stomach is absolutely huge and hurts so bad, all ive eaten is fruit veg and chicken since op because ive not wanted to put any weight on. its getting sooo uncomfortable, does anyone know any tips or tricks to help get things moving ? 🙁 xx

Ahgr… Same here hun! Taking movicol, hope it will help eventually… It helps to put something warm on tummy and massage it slightly clockwise. I stopped painkillers as they cause constipation… Are u still on meds?

yeah i still have another day of antibiotics to take and still on painkillers was gonna stop taking them after today and still using the ibuprofen too…. best go get the hot water bottle hadn’t i haha, been walking around a bit to keep some kind of movement going but obviously hasn’t helped either. thanks miss-vi ill massage it and get the hot water bottle on it!! xx

just to post an update on this – movicol seems to be working on me… it taste awful! but i guess it is a minor issue. hope u are feeling better by now!

Plenty of water and I found lactose eventually got me moving x

Hun totally feel for you after I went the first time I still felt bloated for about a week after . I found a walk and lots of water. Bit of senna before bed helped just keep trying . Xx

McDonalds! That always makes me want the toilet! Literally 30 mins after I’ve eaten it….BANG, ready to go. x

LOL @Karrin that made me laugh so much! Thought i was the only one hahaha xx

Only thing helped me immediately (infact it ended up the other end of the scale haha sorry graphic dont take more than3!) dolcolax ! X

@sophie its true! Everytime without fail! 😉 x
