Thank you -L for posting for me and thank you all for your great wishes. I got home this morning and have had a nap and a shower and am feeling much better. The port area is still tender and I'm still very bloated with gas but I'm working on moving it along
Never in a million years did I think 8 oz of anything would be so hard to consume! I have almost finished one 8 oz serving of Nectar (25 g of protein) but I'm not sure I'll be able to manage two. Ah well, there's always tomorrow.
Thanks for all your good thoughts and I'll let you know how I'm doing.
