How To Treat Discomfort In Passing Stools After A Rectocele Repair?

I had a rectocele repair done about 2 weeks ago and my doctor has certed me off work for 3 weeks in total. My question is that I am having great difficulty in going to the loo, despite taking fibrogel sachets B.D. and having a reasonably healthy diet - is this normal?? 2. How soon could I drive?
