    I was admitted to the hospital on April 14 and stayed three days. I had a perforated colon with a 2 cm abscess. No the doctor wants to do a laparoscopic surgery and remove part of my colon. I’m doing a second opinion. The day I left hospital I’ve been feeling great but tired comes low calorie diet and I’m just starting to add fiber.
