I know, I've been searching around for months for more information on colon srs but not much comes up. the only decent thing i could find were posts on here about Dr kaushik but don't really fancy India, I'd rather go back to Thailand, somewhere I know, It makes me feel safer.
Hope your healing is still going well, are you managing to get out of the hotel much?
So what is your diet at the moment? That sounds like a lot of things you can't eat.
The PAI clinic is really advanced, spacious, and modern. Phyathai Hospital, where I had my surgery and recovery, is also the same. My private hospital room was modern and huge. There was an extra bed in case I had a guest. Five large windows overlooking the city from the 22nd floor, offered a great view and plenty of sunshine. There was a table and 2 chairs. There was a safe to store my valuables. A refrigerator, microwave, and coffee maker. And my own private bathroom with shower. And lots of open space in addition to all that. I think my private hospital room was actually larger than my hotel room, haha. I don't think that the experience in India for trans patients is nearly as luxurious.
I am not leaving the hotel at all yet. It is still difficult for me to get around or even to stand up straight because of my lower abdominal muscles are still recovering. Before my surgery I did a lot of shopping and stocked up on supplies in my hotel room. I don't need to go out for anything.
For food, I am eating eggs, white bread, and rice porridge with chicken. I think that's actually all I've eaten since I got to my hotel, lol. Oh, and lots of juice. I usually don't drink fruit juices because it's a lot of sugar and calories, but during my recovery it is easy on my digestion and tastes good. I could probably eat other foods and be ok too, but these foods are working well for me right now and I don't want to risk more pain than I'm dealing with. So I'm being super conservative in my food choices. In a few days I will slowly start introducing other foods to my diet.
