judy, since i had my fill im throwing up more. yesterday it was 3 times but only once today. i noticed if i eat the mushier foods i dont throw up, so either im eating too much or to fast or not chewing enough. im going to choose softer foods till i get back from vacation. im supp to go back in 6 weeks but try to get through to get an appt. i will walk on sat if it doesnt rain val -
