It's A Genetic Thing. The CDH1 Mutation That Changed My Life. Oh my goodness, so much I have missed over the last few months. My apologies for being so delinquent (but we will touch on that a bit later). I have been reaching my goal of 1800 calories every day. I now takes very little time to plan my meals and snacks as I am generally choosing better items. My snacks would most often consist of some if not all of the below on a daily basis:. Cheese and deli meat. Salsa or Bruschetta and Chips. I saw my su...

Home Sweet Home | It's A Genetic Thing
https://tummytribute.wordpress.com/2015/04/30/home-sweet-home
It's A Genetic Thing. The CDH1 Mutation That Changed My Life. I want to start off saying sorry for the disjointed last post, being in a morphine fog will do that to one…. Well I am finally home; after 14 long days of being in the hospital I can finally get back to some semblance of a routine. It was nice to be sent home on April 29, it was happy though emotional because of the few crappy days and the compassion and warmth the nurses and nursing assistants showed during my stay.They do such a tough jo...

It's A Genetic Thing. The CDH1 Mutation That Changed My Life. 3 Months Post Op (A couple Weeks Late Posting). I just want to say that I cannot believe that 3 months has passed already. It has absolutely flown by, and I am so glad of the positive improvements that I have been seeing over the last few weeks, though I have had some setbacks. The last 5 weeks have been interesting I have had some losses but I feel more wins. I can now eat bread at no more than one slice at a time. I am extremely sensitive to...

16 Weeks Post Op | It's A Genetic Thing
https://tummytribute.wordpress.com/2015/08/06/16-weeks-post-op
It's A Genetic Thing. The CDH1 Mutation That Changed My Life. 16 Weeks Post Op. I am still amazed at how quick the time has gone by since surgery, but I really should know better as having a child makes each day go by even quicker, and getting older has shown that as well. It has been a difficult couple of months back at work and trying to assume some normalcy to life; it has not been easy though I am making slow progress through my recovery. Hoping you have a wonderful remaining weeks of summer! 16 Week...

https://tummytribute.wordpress.com/2015/05/19/almost-5-weeks-post-op-update
It's A Genetic Thing. The CDH1 Mutation That Changed My Life. Almost 5 Weeks Post Op Update. I can’t believe it’s been nearly 5 weeks since surgery, how time flies. Here’s me doing another happy dance! Needless to say I am relieved. I know that I made the right decision and that I don’t have to worry about getting stomach cancer any more. I have no regrets about having the surgery, don’t get me wrong I have moments when I am hugging the toilet retching for the second time in a day (like today) beca...

7 Weeks Post Op | It's A Genetic Thing
https://tummytribute.wordpress.com/2015/06/12/7-weeks-post-op
It's A Genetic Thing. The CDH1 Mutation That Changed My Life. 7 Weeks Post Op. Today we are sitting at 8 weeks post op, and each week brings new food and new challenges. Overall though I feel alright, just tired constantly. I still have some incision tenderness and it’s widened and red but I am putting the vitamin E on it and hoping that helps a bit with some consistent use. But I am not super worried it’s a wicked scar, that shows that those of us who have them are warriors! Almost 5 Weeks Post Op Update.

https://tummytribute.wordpress.com/2015/04/21/5-days-post-op
It's A Genetic Thing. The CDH1 Mutation That Changed My Life. 5 Days Post Op. Well it went off without a hitch and I was in my room around 6 pm. The epidural is only working on the right side but the pain management team here is taking good care of me. It’s only been at a 2-3 level. On Friday, the day after surgery my pain pump stopped working, those were nearly the worst couple hours of my life! I was really scared about pain after the surgery, and how it was going to cope. But it’s been not a...Be prep...
