I finally had a hip replacement Tuesday afternoon and should be discharged from the hospital tomorrow, Friday. I had my last BM on Monday morning.
The hospital has been giving me Colase a "stool softener." Also a dose of Miralax when I insist but no ground flax seed, awwwwh!
I suspect the mandatory spinal block and Norcol pain killers have shut down any need for a BM and I fear another AF if I get all moving again. Any ideas on how to safely get started again?
This could get ugly!
