Take Colace (non-stimulant) stool softener; 1 to 3 Tabs per day. Best to start before the banding so your stool wil be SOFT for that 1st BM after the banding. It is safe to take daily for as long as you want. When the urge to go gets strong... have a seat and be Patient. CAUTION... you will likely have an urge to push or strain; but do NOT push or strain as that is the path that leads you back to more hemorrhoid issues. That 1st BM after banding... with Soft stool (Colace) is so much better that with non-softened Hard stool. And the urge to push much easier to control when passing Milk Chocolate vs Rocks!
