Geraldine,
Wow! That's very scary! And nothing you could do to prevent it! EEK!
I worry about this and gall bladder problems, which are only mildly preventable. I was good and took my actigal for 5 months after surgery, but i'm still nervous about it!
I'm glad you're feeling better!

Geraldine, Sorry to hear of your ordeal. I pray you will continue to heal and feel better quickly. Thank you for sharing this info because I have been having some strange lower abdomin pain lately. Nothing as intense as you described but I still want to be aware that there may be a complication. I know when I eat different kinds of protein bars that intensifies my abdomin pain (lots and lots of gas) (oooouuuuch). I hope you will be better soon. Blessings to you on your journey.

Hey Geraldine,
That sounds real good though. I am going to have to try it that way.

Hey Sweetie,
Please repeat that for me. Did you say that ONIONS are higher in CARBS than potatoes? OMG, do you know how many onions I can eat and how often. Please say it ain't so!!! I need to hear from you, because I am like really ready to flip my lid now. I had no idea and I love onions. OMG. I am soo dumb, all the years of eating bad, I had no idea what was good or bad.

How scary. I was under the impression that we were all doing fine and really didn't have to worry about complications either. Guess I was wrong too. Good luck,and i said a pray for you. Karen

I am being careful. went back to the basics for diet (yogurt, cottage cheese, soups) and will see if there are any tests I can have to see if it is completely open.
At least now I know what it feels like and will be to the dr sooner- would you believe I gained 10# while in the hospital not eating or drinking anything! (I know water weight- it was fun to lose 7# in a day!)
