Before I got Maxine, I loved Chinese food. Since having her, I have shied away from it as I was told Chinese vegetables can cause a wicked blockage, and I don't want another one of those. However, that being said, what sort of Chinese food can be eaten without the possibility of blocking me up? Do you folks eat it, and if so, what do you eat that is okay for your ileostomy? I just had a revision to remove a stricture, so things are working much better, but I don't want to topple the boat if you know what I mean. I would like to be able to eat a little of the foods that I used to like though, so any advice would be greatly appreciated. I don't like sauerkraut or cabbage stuff, so I am okay in that department.
