Post-op Takedown

KPMember

I'm around 1.5 weeks post-op from my 2nd takedown and everything is going pretty well this time. My only complaint is that I'm having a lot of gas. Most of my bathroom trips (every 1-2 hours) are mostly gas with a little stool. I'm pretty sure I'm avoiding all the foods that cause gas. Maybe I'm eating too many carbs...I dunno. Is excessive gas normal at this stage after takedown, or do I need to look into adjusting my diet?

Definitely normal. Takes time to get nice and acclimated to the new functioning of the pouch. Relax but make sure you get up and move around to keep things flowing smoothly in your body. And above all stay positive.
