I've only been post- op for a week but suffering a bit from diarrhoea. The advice I received today was to reduce fibre and increase stodgy food such as porridge, boiled rice and boiled / mashed potatoes. Hope this helps.
Luckily, no urination issues but hope you improve on both counts.

Thank you Martin. The oncologist actually prescribed a fiber supplement so I was surprised when you said you were advised to reduce fiber. I love rice and also potatoes so was pleased to see those suggestions.
Best of wishes to you for a quick recovery and thanks again for the reply.
