Hi Laurie,
It seems the post op diet are similar. Vitamin B12, C and D Will be very important. I will probably need to have B12 injections monthly. I currently have a feeding tube and will have that for. 6 weeks.
I go home from hospital today.

Thanks for your support.

@pain3relie
So glad your going home. I do B12 injections every 21 days, plus C, D and iron supplements.

Check with insurance on B12 injections, they should be cover as medically necessary. If not, check GoodRx coupon.

Are you able to take anything orally for next 6 weeks?
