there is a lot of differences of opinion, as you all know.
I personally disagree with several things on that list , for instance-
buillion is way too high in salt for a post op diet aht may not have enougth liquids anyway
Anything that melts into a liquid IS a liquid - why any restriction on ice cream, puddlings, Jello, ETC - no sense at all to this.
Lots more.
I don't think you can come up with a list for people - we each must follow our own doc's recommendation. A board like this cannot substitute for a dcotor's post-op orders.
If your surgeon does not have clear, written post op orders, he needs to make some. Dr Kuri , for instance, gives a very complete list of diet orders, as well as wound-care orders, and much more. Renee.
