Iam sorry you are having problems
Before my surgery I was very active I worked 7 days a week.now it takes a real effort just to clean.i don't have constipation but I have the worst diarrhea anything I eat or drink running to the bathroom is a complete pain.so I could imagine you having so much constipation one of the things that I have found is dulcolax chewable they work within 30 minutes my husband gets constipated frequently and just one chewable is able to have a bowel movement
They are expensive but if it works
It's worth it.i wish you lots of luck one more thing I have not been able to eat.its been 6 days now.anyone else have this problem

Scroll to read my comment.
For a few months after surgery, I didn't eat anything all day nor breakfast just to be able to go out doing enjoyable things and then come home starving. Didn't drink water either 'cause I had to go then.
I now get ready to leave home and sometimes have to run back indoors to go.
I did follow the FOD food map for about a year but it didn't really help.
I am on it again from yesterday.
If I go too many times in a day, I have to use rectal creme to stop the painful burning and itching. It works instantly.
It's hell really.
