Staying healthy after a total gastrectomy

Hi Cestrian i had a successful Total Gastrectomy op back on the 5th December 22 , went on liquids for around 2-3 weeks, then soft foods for 2 weeks and moved back to solids after that. Although ive been trying little and often meals (5-6 per day) i did suffer with vomiting for nearly 3 weeks consecutively 

I dont want to alarm you but i consulted my oncologist and surgeon and was sent for another endoscopy and ct scan. I experienced stomach cramps like you which quickly moved around the sides of my body to my lower back. The outcome of both examinations was an ULCER. I got meds for this and pleased to say im recovering as i should but get it checked out

Hi Sweats,

Many thanks for taking the time to provide me with some advice. I had a CT scan a week or so ago and everything is showing as being fine so I guess it’s just my new plumbing settling.

I hope that you’re recovering well now?
