1. after my bad experience in bathroom last night i feel kinda odd shakey nauseous and tum hurts a bit. is this normal and will i feel better soon?

Yes when you are constipated nausea & tummy ache are to be expected. Once you are going to the loo again you should feel much better.

2. is milk a fluid? sounds stupid but trying to up fluids so was wondering

Yes milk is a fluid, so you can count it towards your daily minimum. However at least 50% of you fluids per day should be have no/very low calories such as sugar-free flavoured water or plain water or fruit tea.

3. does anyone know any foods etc i should avoid dont want this again.

You can't really avoid any foods except controlling your caffeine intake, but make sure you have more fiber & fluids.

Not heard of it myself but here are two links, says it is a mild laxative but as with any laxitive you can get some cramping, it will go quickly as soon as you are more 'regular' again.

I have been using benefiber since the first week post-op, I think it is brilliant.

Hope that helps you!
