Most likely normal: Being that you are in recovery this can be normal. Increase your oral hydration, get your bowels moving with a bowel regimen and make your POST OPERATIVE appointment. Take a friend or family with you to discuss this issue. Recovery is marked by ups and downs. Call your surgery team if you have fever or vomiting. Be well.
