Guest guest Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 SINCE MY RECTAL RECONSTRUCTION SURGERY I HAVE BEEN HAVING DIARRHEA AND TAKE MOM. I HAVE DECREASED IT TO 1 TEASPOON AND STILL GET DIARRHEA AND WONDER IF I EVEN NEED SOMETHING TO GO. SO I AM GOING TO TRY NOT TAKING MOM AND SEE IF I GO NORMALLY. ANY SUGGESTIONS? THE DOCTOR SAID TO TRY TAKING NOTHING FOR 2 DAYS AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS. I HAVE BEEN VERY ILL AND LOST A LOT OF WEIGHT AND AM STILL RECUPING. I HAD A ANOPLASTY WITH A GRAFT. ITS VERY DIFFICULT SURGERY ESPECIALLY FOR A 72 YEAR OLD. I WILL EMAIL SOON. HI TO EVERYONE. SINCERELY MARG MESSICK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 Hi Marg, I'm sorry to read that you've been having so much trouble recently - and I do hope you will begin feeling better soon. I will try to call you soon. As for the diarrhea - did this coincide with starting to consume milk and dairy products again? It may be that your system is reacting to the dairy and that it is not the MOM causing the diarrhea. Just a thought. Hope to speak with you soon. take care, > > SINCE MY RECTAL RECONSTRUCTION SURGERY I HAVE BEEN HAVING DIARRHEA AND > TAKE MOM.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 Is it possible that your surgery fixed your constipation struggles? Do you still need laxatives! Are you using the MOM daily, if so maybe reduce from daily to every other day or more. Marg could you tell me what a graft is? Our sons surgeon mentioned grafting. His first surgeries well be that and putting in a colostomy bag!

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 Marg, as far as bateria is concerned, what did your stool sample say? I'm not totally sure about this but I believe that mainstream docs test for different things of those of Chiro's? I believe they are either missing something or it could be something you are eating or drinking? Does anyone else in your household have this problem? Here's a thought..........I know you said they tested you for wheat, gluten and milk, sometimes it's not the wheat alone that people react to, it's what they sprayed on it in the warehouse to keep the bugs off the product. Why don't you try switching the things you are eating, like the bread & milk you use etc. I would also look into every kind of stool sample available......................The Great plains laboratory and the Great Smokies..................Oberweis milk has no bovine growth horomone Jeanie Subject: MOMTo: miralax Date: Friday, December 12, 2008, 8:58 PM I was on MOM before my rectal surgery and graft and now had to stop it as it gives me diarrhea no matter what dosage.
