I am scheduled for a tummy tuck next month and feel prepared for the surgery and the recovery. The only worry I have is that I have a difficult time with constipation under the best of circumstances and often have to strain to move my bowels. My primary care doctor has suggested I start Miralax a few days before the surgery, which I will do. Do you think this will be enough? What other measures could I take? Thank you.
