Thanks so much for your reply! Very informative. I am going to rehab tomorrow and hopefully they understand the delicate stomach issues as regards to food and water before stomach wakes up.

One other related thought: I was originally taking some occasional oxycodone for the stomach spasms and stent-related pain. I knew they could occasionally cause constipation, but one my docs informed me that opioids could be especially problematic with a digestive tract that's still trying to wake up. I hope your rehab goes well!

Hey Mark
I’m caught up in the Medicare for profit rehab nightmare. Every place has rejected me because of my TPN nutrition bag. One accepted then changed their mind. What kind of symptoms or sensations (if you remember) does the stomach waking up feel like? I am on a strict water/ice diet, 2 cups of ice every 24 hours. When I go to bathroom bowel is full of green bile floating on top. If I could slowly move towards solid food I could go to the rehab of my choice! Many thanks
