From experience, i think youll need longer at home. i took 11 days off and went back to half days for another two weeks. i was unable to take my narcotic pain meds and found alternating ibuprofen with tylenol every three hours worked best. getting back to a normal pooping routine also helped me, so i took miralax at night to induce a movement the next morning. i was back to full tome work (teaching) after six weeks. this surgery is no joke! its been a year thoigh and im still glad i did it

thank you. so i should drink laxative just before i go to bed? none during the day? i had to file a disability claim for work they are quit mad at me i might lose my job over this. but they just dont understand three days after a surgery like this i cant just return right back to work like nothing happened.. and the vics they gave me really are no help whats so ever.

youll probably need to play around with the dose and what time of day works best for you. you definitely do not want any sort of hard poo coming out of you after surgery.

In New York if you were to get fired for having a operation, the worst attorney will get you a million bucks, forget if you had a good attorney, your whole bloodline would be comfortable for 100 years....
