So I am 2.5 weeks out from my last surgery to fix partial blockage due to adhesions at the resection site. I had major diarrhea for 4 days and am now constipated for 2 days. Doc said I would be all over the place and this is normal. I am still scared, though. I don't want to go back to the hospital. I haven't had any fevers or vomiting or nausea. My pain is minimal and mostly at the incision. I am still taking Vicodin a few times a day. I am eating small meals and have gas. Not a lot of cramps.
Anyone else experience these back and forth after their reversal??
