Oh thank goodness I was a year out before having gastroenteritis! I can't imagine what this would have been like in the first few months after surgery. Thank you for suggesting the BRAT diet. That really did the trick! I was so miserable that I wasn't thinking straight. I may not be on here everyday as I was in the beginning but knowing you are all here when I need a helping hand is so great!

Curious, what is the BRAT diet?
