@ contentandwell I haven't been instructed yet as to the hazards of eating out post-op. What do I need to know? I have been trying to follow the threads on susnscreen and vacationing. I am hoping it will be explained to me by my doctors and coordinator.

I don't know what kind of post surgery education that your center will provide. However, I feel sure that you will get information about post operative care, and post hospital care when you are ready to need it.
During my recovery in hospital, the nurses had a notebook for me and my husband and every day we went thru a section of it, together, to prepare us for my transition to a healthy life. The period immediately following surgery is a bit hectic, and there are medicine changes being made, but the nurses take care of all of that.
Your coordinator will become your best buddy and resource as you move forward. She/he usually knows the question before you even ask! It will be an exciting time for you!
