I did have a post-op ileus for about 10 days, and that was pretty unpleasant.

I did as well, mine lasted 5 days, ended with the dreaded NG tube.  I had it in for 24 hours and once the ileus resolved (which I knew from my bag filling up) I pulled out the NG Tube on my own.  The nurses were not pleased with me but the horse had left the barn, and when the horse has left the barn, there is not much you can do except yell and swear.
