Topic: RE: Varity in diet
I can't eat anything heavy like that or my stomach hurts. I have just decided to accept it and move on. But that is not an option for most people. I can live without pasta............. it is not a favorite of mine and hasn't been for a long time.
Topic: RE: Stomach Pains
Hi Laura,
Thank you so much for your prayer.
I think it worked already!
This AM Dr. Hong was great and made me feel at ease right away.
He will perform the scope tomorrow at 9:00AM. After he read the report from the ER, he explained that the enzyme levels were not that high and it probably was not pancreatitis.
I have been pain feel today - but I have taken the medicines he prescribed. I believe it was the prayers from this board that really helped.
Thank you again for your support.

Topic: Varity in diet
Hi all. Just wanted to let all know that I could not eat pasta. It made my stomach hurt immediatly. Someone told me to try angel hair pasta. I ate it tonight and had no problem. It was very good and I ate about a cup. If anyone has any ideals to put varity in our diet please let me know. I am sick of chicken. Hope all had a wonderful day and remember we are in this journey together. See all lighter. Joanne

Ruth, I know what you mean about a cheap date. I am to the point now that I just order a side and have a couple bites of what my husband orders or just get an extra plate. I also have a problem if I eat to fast. WE are learning everyday. Try varity in your diet. It might help you to eat more. I know I'm sick of chicken. See you lighter. Joanne

Linda, I know what you are talking about with wet food. I have the same problem but I learned that early on so I don't eat dry food. I couldn't eat pasta but someone told me to try angel hair pasta. I had it for dinner tonight . I ate about a cup and had no problem. Boy was it good !!!! You are so lucky with your hair but I am happy for you. I hope mine comes back thick and beautiful. See you lighter. Joanne
