Dietitian,
Imperative you take laxatives. prescription laxatives, stool softeners, prune juice, HIGH FIBRE, LENTILS, BEANS.BANANAS etc etc, having a SMALL BOWEL MOVEMENT is critical daily. Even if you are told it is ok, don't go for 2days or more without one.
You can avoid pain and complications.
Good luck
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE HEALTHY EATING CHOICES
