So glad to hear you are doing well. I just had surgery on Monday to remove half of my thyroid (if the tests come back showing I have thyroid cancer, I have to go back in within the next couple weeks to have the entire thyroid removed - yuck). The last time I have had a BM was Sunday and still no signs of relief. I was expecting this because every time I have had surgery, I have the same problem. I have been continuing to take my Zelnorm along with stool softener and citrucel. Hopefully things will improve in the next day or so. I had surgery in January and went 6 days without a BM! I was hoping that since I have changed my diet so much and was taking Zelnorm that this time would be easier, but unfortunately I'm still having the same problem.

Good luck to you and hope you are feeling better soon.
