How long for our little tummies to empty?
Being that I no longer feel true hunger, its hard to know how long it takes to empty my tummy. I was told it can hold 3-4 oz at a time. I'm guessing certain foods take longer? water less? I'm completely ignorant on this. anyone have a clue?

HELP! Anyone Post OP on Asacol or any other meds that cant be crushed?
Thank you so much for the reply. Believe it or not, they dont make the suppository form any longer (canasa) but maybe I could talk to the doc about finding a compound pharmacy to do so. I'll be 3 weeks post op tomorrow. I put a call into my nutritionist, I am concerned the coating may get "stuck" in my pyloric something or another, which she explained could not handle seeds, pickles, etc. for 6 months. Anyway, I am miserable right now so I'm willing to try anything. Thanks again for your reply, and if you are a car mechanic, I wish you were local, because your pretty darn smart! Thanks for the suggestions!

HELP! Anyone Post OP on Asacol or any other meds that cant be crushed?
I'm miserable......My gastro. says I cant crush Asacol because it breaks down in the intestines (I have crohnes disease) and my Nutritionist and surgeon said all meds need to be crushed for the first month. So now what? Gastro gave me an enema form of meds (fun) that I am taking nightly but ts not working? Anyone have ideas? I've called him 3 times and have been told there is nothing else.
