Thanks for the history. Noted your case.
Understand your fears. But laparoscopy is a mild invasive procedure so it does have some effect on bowel resulting in affected bowel movements.
Pain threshold can be different for different patients. Yes the pain could be a result of procedure. Or there could be due to nerve involvement as indicated by the nature of your pain. Shooting and pinching pain is usually due to nerve involvement Wud adv- 1.Plenty of oral fluids. 2.Could use some laxatives. 3.Green leafy vegetables. 4.Increased walking 5.Do PT INR and USG(A+P)
