I had my surgery on 10/31/23. On 11/1/23 I woke up in the evening with the worst pain in my life, and short of breath. After a CT scan, they saw there was a perforation in my intestine. I was taken back to surgery and they ended up having to open my stomach to fix this, and I woke up with a Med Vac in my abdomen along with a drain. After another surgery to remove the Vac 8 days later, I was allowed to leave the hospital the next day. 5 Days later I was readmitted with an infection in my intestine. Because of all this, I did not go through the normal stages of phase 1 - phase 5. I am constantly googling to see what I can eat. My Surgeon told me to eat what I can tolerate, but, I did not go through all this to not have it be successful. Has anybody else experienced anything close to this. I am 9 weeks post op now. Oh yeah, also to complicate matters, all the artificial sweeteners causes nausea, which I have had my share of. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
