I have a concern if anyone can reply to it? I have had BM at first I was constipated and now it is the opposite. Is this common after 2nd week recovery?

Hi Tammi, Were you taking narcotics for pain at all? Have you taken anything for constipation? It could be from stopping narcotics or from taking stool softeners they give you after surgery. if it keeps being a problem, I would seek the advice of your doctor. I have heard of women getting IBS after their hysteectomy. It can be a combination of both types of stools and cause severe cramping.

I hope you feel better soon! Your Friend, Chris

Your Friend, Chris
