 Hi All,

As many of you know, my wife, daughter and I moved back to Saskatchewan. I landed a senior position with Cameco, the uranium producer. As you may also know, I have been suffering from diarhrea for a few days. I spent part of last night in the ER in Regina getting rehydrated. My bloodwork showed I was slightly dehydrated. The ER Doc consulted with the Bariatric surgeon and he suggested it was somewhat common reaction to the surgery and that I should take Imodium to help with the cramps etc.

Does anyone have a scanned ormelectronic copy of the TWH Post Op Food Lists? I should be starting pureed foods today. My binder with all of my info was packed and sent back to Sask bound for storage. WhenMy stuff arrives, I'll find my binder but until then, I need a little help.

Dave.....

It wont be perfect but better than nothing.

Hey Dave,

Are you taking a calcium citrate supplement yet? You may find that helps to bind you up a little. Also, as soon as you're able to eat some soft cheese, like a babybel light, that will help too. Make sure you're hydrating extra if you keep having diarrhea. Good luck!

Scanning it for you now Dave and will message it to you. Anything else you need?

Sometimes you just put one foot in front of the other, even if you don't know where you're going.

 Thanks specifically to Donna and Heidi.

I have been extra careful to make sure I am drinking enough. Flying all day to Regina wore me out and I wS worried, so I went to the ER. I am working on full fluids again and hope to start so food early next week.

BTW, I feel somewhat better today. I am still not sure that I didn't just get a stomach bug.

Thanks again,

Dave...
