Experience with Tummy-Tuck anyone?

This is the worst thing ever. I truly hope the end result is worth it all. I haven't had a BM in a week and I've tried everything. I shudder to think what I may end up having to do to resolve that issue.
Staying in a bent position and sleeping in a chair is doing a number on my back.
Bit the worst part is I can't hug and snuggle with my kids

After I busted my wrist Norco stopped me up something fierce!!! I don't recall what finally worked…milk of magnesia, perhaps? Or Senekot + stool softener. See what your doctor recommends. Perhaps something old-school like a glycerine suppository would even work.

I hope you feel better fast. I suspect a lot of your woes are due to narcotic pain meds. I tend to get all the nasty effects from those, too.

Oh my goodness. I am sorry you are having a tough post-op. It is the worst. I just talked to a family member yesterday that is post-op and we laughed about pain vs constipation. It is a tough choice. I would not wish that on anyone. So sorry.

I think I used stool softeners and a small bit of MofM to reboot the system after my last surgery. Holy Moly, hang in there.

Talk to your doc. S/he might be able to recommend something stronger than than the remedies we think of.
Hope you "go" soon.
