I'm so sorry that you feel miserable. Being constipated is a horrible feeling. If you haven't already tried this idea...Grandma wasn't wrong when she said, "A prune a day keeps the doctor away". Try either a 6-8 oz glass of prune juice every morning or mix it with 4 oz of coffee. Both stimulate the bowels. You may need a few days depending on how backed up you are.
Call the doctor you trust the most and share your concerns. There are medical conditions that can result from intestinal surgery such as a paralyzed illius that need to be addressed.
Never be afraid or embarrassed to discuss what is concerning to you. It's your life.

I am going to have to look up paralyzed illius.. I am not sure which doctor to talk with ,,, I am a fairly new patient with my PCP as well as the gastrologist .. I just received a letter from the specialist who performed my surgery and he is leaving his practice due ... THank you for your response

Try cabbage water for constipation. Cook the cabbage in water. Cool it. Drink the cabbage water.

at walgreen or amazon Prunelax max strength tabs 2 with 2/3 meals with 8-12 oz water .. start slow IT WILLWORK, then study diaphragmatic breathing. Best of luck

Chocolate contains magnesium, it has always worked for us instead of 'milk of magnesium'

For years I had your problem including irritable bowl and my medicine was making me irritable and finally listened to my Dr and changed my diet but the on single thing I changed was my breakfast
I mix moms best spoon size agree shredded wheat no sugar coating plus All Bran sometimes moms Raisin Bran and I switched out sugar for a low or no sugar protein powder and I’ve been doing this for 30 years nite it took awhile but if I use this 5 times a week no more problem when I travel I use a large ziplock bag and my cereal goes with me
It’s not going to work right away but you have to give it time now I go sometimes twice in the morning and problem solved
I am careful not to use other brands shredded wheat even with no sugar coating since they still contain lots of sugar
My daughter travels for work and she started the same breakfast and solved her problems also
Good luck
