Hi all - well, I am 12 days out from my LIS for 2 fissures and skin tag removal. My bowel routine is this: Friendly foods of course (I do a green smoothie each day with flax seed) fish oil, physillium husk seed powder - 1 TBLS at night, 1/2 cup prune juic spread out through the day, vitamin C 3000 mg and mineral oil, 1 TBLS at night and 2 TBLS milk of magnesia at night. SO, question... when do I change back to normal stuff. I never had hard bowel movements...I have always had good habits there (i use a lot of natural stuff like super aloe, triphala, magnesium citrate)... my problem was such a tight sphincter that I couldn't get the poo out without some help from a glycerin suppository!
RIght now, I'm only having one bowel movement in the morning... and it's soft alright! And I do the squatting thing still.... so, how often to do you all go??? to the bathroom I mean? Sometimes I feel like I need to go at night, but I can't and I don't want to use the suppository and I don't want to push.... advice?
I've tried mirilax before.. made me gassy.
