Taste And Smell Problems After Major Surgery. Posted: 08-27-06 18:39pm
My husband had colon surgery and was in
the hospital 7 days. Since we have been
home he can't smell correctly and nothing
tastes right to him. He is loosing weight
and I was wondering if it could be a
result from the anesthesia or morphine or
antibiotics he was given in the hospital.
I hope someone can answer my very long
question.

After My Surgery Posted: 08-28-06 16:20pm
In 1985/86 I had both hips replaced and
the hardest problem was first having a
bowl movement and second was any desire at
all to eat (one doesn't happen without the
other!) try simple foods, jello, peanut
butter foods that are bland; I drank 7up
and other simple liquids like there was no
tomorrow and had to force myself to eat
but with time the desire for all my
favorites came back; a couple of weeks. I
hope this helps I will keep you folks in
my prayers!
