I see you cc: Dr.R. , please let us know what he says. If this is normal,

sounds like I will have to get up REAL early before I can leave from work.

Am a gate agent for a major airline, now would be my chance to get back at

those passengers who are a real pain in the axx! Since there are so many

people around, I can easily pretend it wasn't me..(he he) lol.

Judy,

Can you take something like GasX? I know you cannot take it right after

surgery but at some point it might help

I am not posting on this subject. Bowel problems are not feminine or dainty.

Thus, I have none of these problems because after all I am a dainty and feminine

lady. I also have never snored..that's not ladylike either.

I am however

Hi Philly Jude:

No you are not the only one. I too have to go to the bathroom immediately

when I get up in the morning and sometimes once more during the day. I find

that if I eat something that is too rich in fat then it really hits me with

the cramps and diaherrea (sp?) until its out of my system. And stink and

gas!! Oh yes. I really wonder if the Actigall plays a big part in this also.

But, don't feel left out, I'm sure there are others experiencing this too

and I hope this will pass with time.

Jackie, I am starting to hear back from others, some privately, some on the

site, and what I'm hearing is that my situation is within the realm of

normal, but close to the edge.. It's supposed to get better within the next

couple weeks. I would love an Imodium though! I am still going to ask Dr. R

what he thinks and if I could either skip a dose of Citrucel or take an

Imodium or something. Or whether I just must stay " regal " . (on the throne)

If regal, well, Y'all will have to refer to me as Queen Jude, I guess!!! Good

thing I weigh so much. If I were thin, I'd be floating like the

Hindenberg!!! Sheesh. Ain't we got fun? Jude

Judy,

Thanks for the info. I would love to know how long it lasts. My work

involves working with public and alot of meetings. I would hate to have to

make a mad dash from the podium during a speech. ;-)

thanks
