  1. Hi-How did your pre-op go? Yes, liquid diet does take a few days to get used to. I woke up this morning not feeling so sore (especially at the port site) & just knew I was going to have a great day, but...decided to go out for lunch to get fresh air, etc. We ate at a local restaurant & I ordered my usual fav - tomatoe bisque soup. I drank ice tea before eating soup & also took my daily meds (4 pills) w/tea. I only ate half of my cup of soup & all was well, until I got in the car. Well...I had the worst burping/gas attack ever in my life. I was nauseated & burping like crazy. I had to come home & lay down to rest abdomen. I guess the soup was too rich for me & a combination of car sickness (I usually get car sick anyway). So, I am awake right now & unable to go to sleep. I drank some apple juice & all seems well for now. I had been doing so good this week w/post-op diet. The only problem I am having is w/drinking 64 oz of liquids in addition to post-op diet. Laura
