Food Planning, Post-Op
Hi all:
OK, so Workers' Comp has finally approved the surgery to remove the spur poking into the spinal cord, and perform the discectomy/fusion at C5-C6.
My understanding is that the esophagus and throat get swollen and annoyed at being handled, and swallowing can be a problem for 3 weeks post-op.
What should I be doing in terms of food planning? Lots of blender drinks with protein powder? Soups? Any prep advice would be appreciated.
