Absolutely normal. I had abdominal cramps, diahrea, didn't want anything to eat. I wanted to eat nothing, but finally came to the realization if I didn't eat, I wouldn't live. So I forced myself to eat two bites per hour. I only wanted cold food in the beginning, but after four years I am back to normal. This is a very slow process, so be patient and don't take giant steps. You will learn which foods upset your stomach, but after my surgery each time I ate I would have horrible cramps. Keep us posted. My prayers are with you.
