Suggest Remedy For Problems With Bowel Movement After Hysterectomy Surgery
I had a hysterectomy for fibroids 3 years ago. I experienced wound dehiscence and the wound took over a year to heal. Since then I have had increasing difficulty with my bowels, with extreme bloating, weight gain of close to 100 lbs, and extreme flatus. I fluctuate between diarrhea and constipation. I am afraid to go for tests because I do not want more surgery.
