Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

sorry i dont have these issues...
but i know people that use the MOM to help...
the best solution is get that water intake up
people find that has helped best.

ALSO my surgeon ( i again never tried) recommends
SMOOTH MOVE TEA gotten at GNC because you go
with out all the stomach pain.......sip at night
and by morning you move your BM.
GOOD LUCK ashley

yep i didnt have my first BM until TWO WEEKS post op so i know exactly how you fee. i was told to use glicerin suppositories. it worked INSTANTLY. i havent had a continuous problem though. i think once your body gets into the rhythm with the puree it will even out. make sure you are getting in your fluids. that will also help keep you as regular as possible.

Ashley Ive been there. I still get little bouts of days where like you said, you just wanna go and it doenst come.

But I take stool softeners reccomended by my doctor. I also up my water which you said you have already done. My surgeons paperwork reccomends prune juice which I cant do. Yuck. They also reccommened the ennema and a certain kinda of pill. Ok for the life of me i cant think of what they are called. Having a brain fart. like ex-lax but they reccommended a different kind. So I hope you go soon. I know that feeling that I get every once and a while. Its not fun. hang in there.

I had this problem also it was so bad I had to do an enema. I now eat fiber tabs daily and that has helped. I agree you would think with all the water that we would not have this problem but we do sometimes.

MOM is totally fine. I had to use it this morning. I was hoping that was
my problem with my ouchy pouchy. I think that might have been some of it, but I am still in pain. My surgeon said that my left back pain was probably constipation and low and behold, when I took it, I felt so much better.
