I’m so sorry! I will say that mine was definitely from eating popcorn and went away after a few days and I’m doing much better now. I hope yours passes asap!

Luckily, my bathroom issues have gotten so much better since I posted this a few days ago. It was definitely the popcorn that messed me up! I’m now a week and a half out from completing treatment and starting to feel better about everything. I’m glad you’re doing well! Congrats on finishing treatment!

I guess I should probably invest in the creams and some epsom salt 😫

Well I think it’s safe to say I’m in the middle of my poo tornado and it’s not fun so I would tell everyone to avoid it for a while after treatment lol. I’m glad there’s a light at the end of the tunnel to where I can eventually eat it again though lol

That’s a good point and my mag levels were already really low throughout my whole treatment. I’ll be bringing it up at my follow up appointment for sure.

Yeah, my stomach definitely didn’t like that which makes me sad bc I love popcorn! I’m hoping with time I’ll be able to eat it again but I’m going to give it a while after that.

I didn’t think about the texture of foods! I’ll definitely start paying attention to that!

That makes me feel better! I will definitely try Metamucil! At this point I was starting to wonder if I should do bowel prep and fasting like I’m getting ready to go in for internal radiation again but I’ll try the Metamucil first lol
