Can I eat creamed spinach or is the spinadh to much its been 5 weeks after surgery

I think it depends on the doctor. Mine would say to go ahead. He approved me for anything after three weeks.

The advice I received was introduce anything after 4 weeks. They gave me tips on easier and more difficult choices but that I could try anything.

Mine wouldn't have said no but many people experience trouble with greens and fibrous veggies until some point around six months post op.

It's a soft enough food but the concern is more that the fibers could get caught if you have more inflammation around your staple line than you realize. Although in all honesty, I have never read a case where someone posted about this happening to them.

That said, it's up to you. If your surgeon didn't disallow it, try a VERY small portion and see how well it settles. I couldn't eat anything like spinach or lettuce for months...and I still avoid iceberg to this day because it upsets my stomach and causes digestive issues!

Good luck, and why not post your experience if you do try it out? Someone else might have a similar question down the line.
