I have had 3 bowel resections, 2 in 2 weeks. Last summer I was hospitalized for 6 weeks with an NG tube for 5 of those 6 weeks. I really need to keep this from happening again and entertain all suggestions. I walk daily, get plenty of fiber and protein yet I still need laxatives every few days.
check with your doctor first but sometimes fiber makes it worse, extra fiber seemed to make it worse for me cause my gi muscles dont work right/in sync
