Hi my name is Rosalind and I had surgery on February 11, 2013 after three appeals. I am still having pain which is really bad when moving on my left side of my abdominal . I am on full liquids which I couldn't wait for cream soups, I can't take them anymore so I have been having egg drop soup it's easy on my stomach until Monday I will be on purée . I am hoping to get some ideas as to a menus from you guys. Hope someone reads this lol. And what about rice ? When I reach solids can I have a small teaspoon of rice? Don't want to be to long winded . Glad to join the forum
