Hello,

I cannot believe what a stupid woman I have been.  I was treated to go on a 3 day break by the sea to convalese in a hotel after gall blad op 5 weeks ago.  Have been so good up until 2 days ago when eat so much not only for breakfast but also the whole day (cannot believe how much I put away). I felt so much better and back to my "normal self"  I am now majorly suffering acute diarrohae and sickness.  I feel absolutely awful. My stomache is still so bloated and very tender.

Is there anyone out there who has done this - how long did it take to stop all these symptoms or has it done any major harm.

Am thankful for any replies.

Due to go back to work this week - feel absolutely terrible and so ashamed it was self inflected.

      Thank you for your posting cheeky87.

      You are very wise reading about what other people experience after these ops.  Obviously now I will never indulge in a Henry VIII style feast again !!!.  Also I wont beat myself up if I am not recovering from an op as fast as others might.  This is my 5th week off and am back to work this week.  

      All the best for your op.  Would love to hear how it all goes for you.

      Best wishes x

    We all make mistakes, forgive yourself.

    Just learn from it and go easy on food consumption for a bit.

    Take care and keep in touch
