Stomach Ache & Diarrhea

While traveling in Europe for a month, I ate foods very different from my norm. Only 5 months post-op, my diet has been pretty simple and bland. For the last week of my trip I had daily diarrhea.

I’ve been home 24 hours - have been drinking only warm chamomile tea. Still have diarrhea.

Any suggestions to get back on track?

Also as @elcee mentioned it could just be a bug. Totally touch base with your Primary/Surgeon for a diagnosis & treatment.

@greentealael I didn’t eat any from the grocery stores that are pre-made on the shelves. I did eat some in a restaurant.

Thanks for the input. Today has been a bit better at home only drinking tea. I plan to go to the doctor tomorrow!
