Sure will! The anesthesia puts your gut to sleep and it takes awhile to

get back to full efficiency.

My oncologist said clear liquids, thick liwuids, soft foods, then normal

foods, in that order. I omitted all raw vegetables until I was off the

opiate pain killers, and she said that was a very good idea, since my gut

would also be at less than peak efficiency under the opiates.

I'm one month post-bowel resection, and my insides are still wonky. No pain, but

BMs range from normal to D on any given day. No urgency though, and just once or

twice a day, so I can live with it for now. But it will be nice when things

normalize again!
