And am I lactose intolerant? Don't think So but I have thrown up Greek yogurt and I do cottage every time I have tried it, and I used to eat it all the time pre-surgery,.💦

I feel like I've developed lactose intolerance, too! Never had an issue before, but very creamy things lead to immediate rejection these days. It's all very strange, but I suspect it will be an evolving situation.

Well 39 days since September 5th, go look on September 2018 Surgeries and Success and see how I am going. More twists and turns than a soap opera. Wonder if I could get on Netflix with Frustr8#s Follies? Oh well, it was just a thought!

Eating alas is the issue, I tried an one-inch chunk of ripe 🍌 Wednesday, a few minutes,to get it in and a hour-and- half urping, burping and vomiting. Not worth it, I am so tired of it all, strained,soups, broths, Protein skakes, Water and no calorie drinks.And my taste buds aren't the same either. When. I was shopping at Wal-Mart I mentioned to my Son I used to buy Lipton Diet citrus green tea at lunchtime, we bought some and I cannot abide the stuff now. Pitched one,in the trash today.
So I get discouraged, all the others that were our surgery twins are far,far ahead. I told,Tomkitten at first I wanted steak, either peas and new potatoes and pearl onion. Now what I would like, teriyaki fried tofu. Take my tofu, drain and dry it off and then saute it in Kikkomon soy sauce , mmaybe throw in some finely sliced green onion and sliced mushrooms, but just the tofu and teriyaki sauce would please me. And what I couldn't eat right away. I can store in my Rubbermaid orTupperware.

I'm so sorry it's this bad for you. I think with time you'll be able to have of these foods again. Thankfully I haven't experienced the "dumping" nor vomiting. I try different foods including some of my favorites and haven't had any issues yet. I have noticed the chills though. How are you with that? I get cold very easily.

Oh I will not give up hope, Dr Needleman and his partner Dr Noria wh9 I met yesterday when she did my EGJ, are very smart physicians and surgeons. I'm sure I am not the first to have this problem. My Grandma Adah, may she rest in peace, had a saying. The Good Lord never made an itch he didn't make a scratcher to fit it. Translation: There is an answer for everything, sometimes you,got to think a while but there is always an answer. I am anxious for it,to manifest itself.😙☺😃

And still slogging through the Stricture Wars and it is mid- November. Beginning to think I am some sort,of weird biweekly Friday date for Endoscopy/Hepatology. Nurses recognize me , Dr Noria refers to me by name, not number, last Friday she even helped PUSH my bed to the procedure area, maybe because I was LAST of the Day? And the receptionist greets me with" Hi again! Did you have a good trip down from Mount Vernon?" We'll I would, had your city fathers not a continuing mile of asphalt needed to remain unbroken! I'm sure I saw Robin Hood's barn 3 times and perhaps Hansel and Gretel's. house. You begin to wonder if you're driving or planning to join a game of Dodge'Em.

And I was a September 5th R-n-Y person.
