Hi all! Surgery is approaching for me (12/13) and I have Celiac disease. I was wondering if there was any more of me out there who could tell me if having Celiac made a difference or not during their post op experience! Thanks!

I too was diagnosed with Celiac. My surgery was September 26th. It hasn't made a difference in the post op for me. In fact, I think it has helped as I've not been able to eat certain foods for years, so I don't miss them. I just say I can't eat that and move on to things I can eat.

I'm not celiac but have several intolerances to foods. My NUT believed this would go away after surgery. She was COMPLETELY wrong if anything I think it's increased my sensitivities.

I don't but think a good post-op plan would be very helpful for someone with celiacs (high protein, low carb). Definitely work with your NUT to make sure you have a good plan in place.
