Crohn's surgery

[Pete Zicato]

Well, like I said I could have not followed it before. The two feet of intestine they took out had such scarring and the bezoar (mass) before it, pretty much acted like a ball valve. Even the carrot stuff would have not gotten through.

However, since that it removed, I have the hope of being able to eat a wider variety of stuff. I'll find out more once the new crohn's is healed up.

Still not sure I could commit to this diet. I like sweets well enough, but could give them up if I can have fruit instead. But I do love bread and am not sure I can let it go.

I have been on steroids for 24 hours now and am already feeling considerably better. It is so good to feel good.

Those of you who are blessed with good health, thank your parents for your good genes!
