I did. After 6 rounds of chemo and the 3 week radiation treatment (higher intensity) my tumor shrunk by 80% and was dead. The surgeon, Dr Kendrick just peeled it off. And he did it laparoscopically The University of Michigan wouldn’t touch it. I spent 5 nights in the hospital. I had no issues with feeding tubes or infections others have had. I am not diabetic.
It’s been 10 months I am working on digestion. It seems to be different for everyone. Some people do better than others. I am guessing it depends a lot on what they find during surgery and what has to be removed. I had lots of diarrhea couldn’t drink any fluids really without diarrhea. Need to stick to chicken and rice very small meals every 2-3 hours. I take Imodium AD to help with the dumping syndrome you get when you don’t stick to the small meals and not drinking fluids with meals. It’s much better if you wait 30 minutes after eating to drink fluids. Or drink 30 minutes before. I drink coffee most mornings now with my egg and cheese sandwiches I and it’s fine. I bring snacks in my car. Have been eating Happy Tot baby food lol as a snack cause it’s easy to bring everywhere.
Get lots of exercise, very important. I walk over a mile daily and ride my horse a few times a week. We are back to jumping fences. 🙂
Best of luck to you!
