Just curious: Has your appetite gone through the roof? My wound from the surgery (abscess in pleural sac) is almost completely healed--I'm using that breath thing, too!--and my appetite is finally getting back to normal. When I first got home from the hospital I couldn't get enough to eat, and all my doctors were pleased to hear it. The crazy thing is I didn't gain any weight. I was eating sweet potatoes, just plain baked sweet potatoes, all day long!
