Hi @leaand and welcome to Connect. We are a community of individuals who help support each other by sharing our experiences and what has helped us. We are not healthcare providers, and so we don't give medical advice.

I'm sorry it's been taking longer than you would like to get a response to your question. You asked it in an unrelated topic, so it's probably not getting seen by people who have had ileus and may have suggestions. I have not had ileus, so I can't offer much for you.

May I suggest you start a new thread in Digestive Health and include details about what caused your ileus, when it was diagnosed, and anything else that might be relevant? Have you seen a healthcare provider? Have you been given any instruction on post ileus care?
