Rebecca posted a note for Rachel that says: Hi Rach I was exactly the same when u was in last time for my 4th heat op I was in so many antibiotics it got to the point where I was getting so severe heartburn I was on morphine as the pain after eating anything was unbarable do they stopped the tablets and I felt better soon after I also had a horrid taste in my mouth which made everything taste disgusting for a while but again once i was off the antibiotics that was fixed too x I hope u start feeling more like u want food again soon xxx it took me a year to get back to my normal weight but at least it's stayed ok xxx can't wait to see you and give u a cuddle if that's ok
