Thank you for this post. I am very concerned that I only have very small bowel movements. Will try fiber (Metamucil) & at least 64 oz. Hydration daily. My surgery was 4 months ago; going for MRI.

I have smaller movements, often, after nearly 9 months. Talk to your doctor so he/she can determine if this is part of the new normal for you. My schedule is still not like before, but I feel so much better and have adjusted. Four months after the surgery things started to get so much better.
