Hello @cgcarpenter, and welcome to Mayo Connect. You are right when you say, "...it's taken time to figure out what doesn't digest well or at all..." Your suggestion of experimenting with diet is important. Many of us have, at some point, kept a food journal to track which foods were problematic. Small portions, well chewed, is a good mantra!
You've had several surgeries, so I'm sure you adjusted your diet with each one. Has the Creon helped you eat a wider variety of foods?
