My husband was advised not to eat any fibrous fruit or vegetables, No pulses, no whole grain cereals Only white bread and to eat refined carb biscuits and cakes. I don’t see the logic I am astounded

I am a 3B rectal cancer survivor.I took pre op xeloda and Radiotherapy which was followed by Descending colon J loop anastomosis to anal canal.I was advised Six courses of postoperative chemo based on the initial diagnosis withPET scan.My postoperative pathology showed no lymph node involvement.I decided not to take the chemo as I valued my quality of life over quantity of life.It is eight years since diagnosis in 2017 .Fortunately I am in remission.
Though I was a vegetarian to begin with I turned vegan and I am on very high fibre diet.The only hassle is,fragmentation and frequency of stools due to J loop.A small price to pay for a healthy life at 73 years.I am the soul caretaker for my 90 year old mother who is bed ridden.

@drbnue, how is your husband doing? Has staying about from fibrous fruit and vegetables and grains helped?
