Surgery delayed! ????

I had to cancel my October surgery due to an infection! I will reschedule once I am off my antibiotics... Hopefully 7-10 days. Should I continue on my liquid diet during these weeks or should I eat some bland foods for a few days and then go back to my liquid Protein drinks until surgery? I have mild diveliculitis and was asked to eat bland foods to help with healing .

I never have had this colon issue!

I would probably stick to the pro-op diet while healing, since it's what your body needs anyway, Protein and low sugar. But it's a good idea to ask your surgeon about it. Hope you get better soon!

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts! Will try to reschedule SOON! I guess it was good that I went for a CAT SCAN before my surgery to see what the pain was from. Not a good thing to deal with During my operation!

@@Nancy1955 Let us know when your new date is & I will put it in the list of dates!!

Thank you all for helping my keep my chin up! Yale care of yourselves along your way. Bless each of us~

It's tough to weather a set back, but best that you be as healthy as possible on surgery day. You'll need all your reserves of strength for the healing process. Good luck!
