I am almost 4 weeks post op. Surgery was May 9. I am now on soft foods. I can handle mashed potatoes, green beans, cheese, and foods like that. Only problem is I cannot handle "real" meat. Tried chicken and it came back up. Tried pork tenderloin and same thing. Is anybody else going through same thing?
