Re: Upcoming surgery on Pituitary Tumor... Chris (J)... we need your input...

[Guest guest]

I think, can respond better on the question of the pituitary and surgery on, or near it.....

Would you believe I'm eating right now???

...the constipation and gas.... having been there myself... the gas being able to pass would mean that things aren't totally impacted...but the solids still being left inside still aren't good.

Eating less food at a sitting will allow his stomach to process better.. that will help a weeee bit.

Is he able to walk around? That helps the bowels to move material down the line... just from moving the body and the motion of walking and gravity....

It is horrid to see someone that you care for in pain....

Since surgery is soon, I think would be better if she asked on these

pituitary support groups including mine as my hypopit was not a tumor

and so close to surgery I'd rather you talk to those that have the

experiance.
