I had a laparoscopic nissen fundoplication on 12/1/10. I have openly described my experiences and feelings on my original 2 blogs: events leading up the surgery, my time in the hospital, and continuing recovery...including dietary issues. This is a compilation of these posts for those interested in the subject or considering the procedure; some posts may not seem directly related, but there is something in each post that I believe to be connected.
Thank you for visiting :).

Day 29 [ #lowcarb #fundoplication ]
Today was a total loss. Slept a lot, didn't get dressed, and ate carbs. The end.
P.S. Oh yeah. I tasted coffee (decaf) for the first time today. It has been my favorite beverage for decades, and I consumed high quantities of the stuff on a daily basis. Since the surgery, just decaf tea...but this morning I fixed a lovely cup, it smells so good brewing...and almost spit it out because it tasted so vile. I don't understand my tastes changing so radically. But tea is now preferred although I'm drinking it with caffeine for my first morning cup now.

ReplyDeleteRough changes - all for the better.
ReplyDeleteAnd then sometimes it tastes bad,
and you can't wait to get it out of your mouth.
And btw, Happy New Year!
