Expected thing post operatively.

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

I thank you for posting your query here and I am definitely going to help you out.

I read your question completely and have understood it well enough.

Please note.

1. Yes.
This is expected post stapler surgery.

2. Do you have control over passing stools or no?
If you have and you pass stools every 2 to 3 hours it's fine.
Sometimes post operation they give laxatives, and frequent passing of stools are side effects of laxatives.

3. Take time. Do not worry. We can wait for 2 more weeks.

4. Slowly over the time, you should be fine.

Hope this helps. In case you need further assistance, please contact me back. Or, you can close the question and rate.

Take care.
