I thought I would push the envelope, tried a small piece of cake with some ice cream. BAD idea! I never want to feel that pain again. In a way I'm glad it made me so sick, sweets were always my weakness. Not anymore, thank god.

blessings to all

Best of luck on your surgery! Read all you can before then about eating and what to expect. Make sure you are as comfortable as you can be about the food aspect. Let us know how it is going!

Boy did I luck out! I met my surgeon today and they happened to get a cancellation for surgery on the 30th and they offered it to me! I would have had to wait until late November if that person hadn't canceled . Someone up about is watching out for me!
