What will I be able to eat after op to remove stomach?

Hi, looking for a bit of advice re post operation to remove stomach. I have been trying in vain to get the nutritioist to advise what foods I will no longer be able to tolerate post op, I know the meals are going to be small and often, and think I would be quite happy to go pescartarian if it is better for my health.

But the question that I would like answered is what foods I will no longer be able to tolerate post op.

Any advise would be gratefully appreciated as when I try to look online it is very inconclusive.

Thanks in Advance

  • Hello RufCas and welcome to Cancer Chat.

    I hope this information explaining what will happen after your op as well as the tips and advice given for any diet problems that may occur will give you a clearer picture of what foods you may not be able to eat but hopefully some of our members who have had this surgery will be along soon to share their experiences and advice.

    Our team of cancer nurses are available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m if you'd like to discuss this with them as well.

    I hope this helps and all goes well with operation and recovery when the time comes.

    Kind regards,
