Problems after small bowel resection

Hi
I had had 2 feet (61cm) of my small bowel removed during emergency surgery for a complete bowel obstruction.  I have gone from constant diarrhea to being completely constipated (no happy medium).  Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem for such a long period of time; I had my surgery in June so it's been 4 months.  

Tks
