I was in hospital for 6 weeks for bowel blockage from previous surgeries, 2 c sections, hernia and adhesions was the problem. They did a removal of blockage by laparoscopic to limit additional problems. Was ok for a year but watching what I eat that is low fiber has given me contipation. Now on Metamucil that has fixed the constipation but at times I can actually feel a lump forming on my right side that feel like food ball. I walk and drink lots of water and it subsides. Any sugggstions, is this the Metamucil ,?
I 80 , fit and no weight problems, suggestion for what to eat that will provide me with constipation relief without Metamucil?
