Hi. I’m recovering from surgery two and a half weeks ago: abdominal hysterectomy, supracolic omectomy and left hemicolectony and anastomosis (bowel resection).
My general recovery is going well ( wound healing and mobility) but I feel I know very little about how long the change in bowel function will take to settle down. So I’m normally someone with occasional IBS and a tendency towards constipation. Now I’m having frequent bowel movements and can’t be too far from a loo… I’d like advice from anyone who has been in this situation.
I should add I’m halfway through my treatment plan of 6 rounds of chemotherapy Carboplatin and Paclitaxel and due to have my next treatment in a week.
