Of course I don't mind! As far as stuff I can't handleven it's a pretty small list right now. Mostly it's high sugar foods? Sometimes peanut butter makes me dump, also really sugary tastin sugar free foods will make me dump as well.. or at least feel like I am.
And as far as taste, most things still taste the same. I personally won't touch SF chocolate pudding ever again because I ate so much of it after surgery. So I think the taste thing is a person by person basis.
Pain levels.. well, while in the hospital it was about a 4 to 5 out of 10.. but you have the pain pump which helps (obviously lol). At home it was mostly gas pain and gas-x and walking alleviate that.
Good luck! Ask anymore questions, I don't mind.
