I am one month post surgery and took great care not to be constipated. I actually went over to the diarrhea side for 2 days. I am taking Dilaudid 6 MGM every 3 hours since I was discharged from the hospital. I cut back on some of my stool softening meds and am finally more regular...but I don't want to become constipated. My stool softening tools are: Colace, prunes, Miralax, and Senocot ( think that I spelled it incorrectly, the brown one).
I know that I will be gradually decreasing pain meds over time, but would like suggestion on how to manage the stool softening meds to keep from going one way or the other.
Thanks, Susan
