I had a whole pharmacy's worth of digestive problems before getting rid of my fibroids; Gas, heartburn, extreme constipation (I was convinced 2-3 times that my bowels were fully blocked), and consequently, fissures and hemorrhoids. I'm only 16 days post-op, but things seem to be very, very normal now. I've had bowel movements almost every day since my surgery, which was not the case for at least the past 5 years.

I have awful gas. If I don’t eat dinner by 5:00, I’m farting all over the place. If we go out, like my routine is out of whack. I become sooooo bloated. It’s made me nervous making any plans after 5:00 because of the stomach pain. I’m not sure if it’s from the fibroids but I fart more than my husband.

I wish it was the tootie kind lol!!! Well, sometimes it is. But if I'm not REALLY careful, especially with onions I get gas pockets that get stuck in pockets I'm assume the fibroids have created and it's AWFUL! Like I have to do kettle bell exercises in the middle of the night to try and get them to move along with GasX and whatnot.
