Kinda of late to the party but I wanted to say my father just had a total gastrectomy for his stomach cancer treatment and is going through some of the same things you are going through with the adjustment to living without a stomach. He seems to have issues consuming sugars so far, I was curious if that was the same case for you?
Also I was wondering if you going through the chemo after the gastrectomy? If you have already gone through it, how much different was it from the first time (my father has done 3 cycles of chemo before the gastrectomy and is going to do another 3 sometime in the near future when he feels up to it).
If anything I know that you are in for a long fight, I send my love, strength, support and prayers to you.
