I had my 19cm mass and right ovary removed on November 16th. I came home from the hospital two days later. My pain level is not to bad, but my question is.
Is it normal to be very constipated? I haven't gone #2 since the day before surgery. Tonight I am planning on getting prune juice and Sun Sweet "Ones" (individual wrapped prunes)
The nurses gave me a stool softener, which hasn't worked yet. I know because of all the pain meds is it going to constipate me, just wanted to know if anyone else had the same problem.....and if so, what was your solution, and how long after your surgery did you finally go #2 ???
Thank you!!!!
