Chronic small bowel obstruction from adhesions

It is stressful and it wouldn't surprise me if the stress made it worse! Luckily, my family and friends are hyper sensitive to the fact that I have major dietary restrictions and plan accordingly. My family also has some food allergies, tree nuts for my husband & son, cranberries for my daughter, and cucumbers for my son in laws mom. So we are all very mindful when planning food for meals and parties. Harder when going out, I always have to look at a menu ahead of time to make sure there is something for me to eat. I love eggnog, but always have to remember my lactaid🙂. If I am going to have anything with alcohol, I generally stick to a glass of wine.

@thull , wine works! 🙂 I have learned the hard way, however, that alcohol may be nice going down (within reason), but it's seriously unpleasant coming back up!
I think that there are probably some lactose-free eggnogs (made with things like soy milk?) out there, too. I'm very fortunate in that one thing that's never been a problem for me is milk...I'm a bit of an ice cream addict, for one thing!
