Stomach cancer surgery in two days!

Hi

The lead up to the op was the hardest for me so I can understand how you are feeling. I had a partial gastrectomy two years ago and recovered really well. I wrote a Blog and you can find it by clicking on my name above.

Eating after the op was the most difficult bit and I was really careful as it’s easy to use at too much.  I got great advice from the Oespheagal Patients Association

Tiny amounts at first I bought a small plate and started off with a cupful when I came out of hospital.  High protein soft foods so things like porridge, eggs , avocado, baked potato..

This Forum was a great support so do ask any questions you have.

I was back at work on a phased return after six weeks and now live a normal life!

Many thanks for your response. The Operation went well. Now the long tough road to recovery begins!
