Guest guest Posted April 17, 2001 Report Share Posted April 17, 2001 Brigid, Have you talked to the nutritionist at your WLS surgeon's office ? Or have you tried Metamucil or even Maalox ? Others have reported when they take Maalox, the chalk in it helps to firm up their stools. You shouldn't be having diarrea to that extreme so far post-op. Please check into to this as we don't want you to start developing iron or protein deficiencies because it's not absorbing in your system properly. It's definitely more than an inconvenience! I know they have a 1 yr date for OSSG Graduates, but there are also ppl on OSSG Results or Post op Problems that may be able to give you more concrete advice. I definitely recommend seeing a doctor who's aware and knowledgable about WLS so they can give you appropriate care as well. Wishing you the best health, Anita Pre-pre-op in Denver > > __________________________________________________ > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
