I too am trying to keep walking around the house and doing small chores. When I am able to do this, my evenings are much better. I am at my doctor’s suggestion taking Metamucil once a day and will work up to twice a day. This has firmed up my BM’s which are certainly not on a regular schedule. However I worry about constipation all the time. I wonder 💭 f prunes or prune juice would help this instead of resorting to Miralax. I am on my fifth week since surgery and now the gas seems more related to what I am eating. This is certainly trial and error. Thank you for your reassurance that this is a normal process.
