Hello @lilbear

In addition to the discussion groups @lisalucier mentioned, I would also invite you to a discussion group on diet changes after digestive tract surgery. Here is a link to that group
--How Do I Eat After Digestive Tract Surgery?
https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/how-do-i-eat-after-digestive-tract-surgery/
As @linda82 mentioned, one of the most important things to do is to eat small meals, make protein a priority at each meal, and walk a little after each meal. I gather from your previous posts that you are having discomfort. Could you explain the most bothersome problem you are currently having?

@hopeful33250 Yes thank you for asking! Bad abdominal pain all over but worse in the lower left side. I get very weak and dizzy in the morning to the point of almost feeling like I’m going to pass out. I had blood test done yesterday which show all my results are good. I also had an abscess that was attached to my bladder that had to be scraped and they are now thinking I possibly have a lot of nerve damage that’s going to take time to heal. Just very miserable right now.
