    I'm glad to hear your surgery was uneventful this time. The first month is the hardest, but its only 30 days then you will be able to start eatting more mormally only in smaller portions. Drinking the required ammount of Fluid was the hardest for me (still is) and I didn't worry about the Protein requirements the first 10 days. Sip ,walk, rest, repeat. Soon you will get back to feeling mormal again.

    You are doing great. It always cheers me up to see one of my sleeve bandits doing so well. Keep up the great work. I hate the stalls too, and seem to have them periodically. Hope all is great your way. :biggrin0:

    Your doing great too!!! I am glad to see the numbers going down again, it's so frustrating when it stays the same for so long.

    I had my surgery in Jan. waited the 4 weeks. I found a sub and went and supported my teammates.

    I bowl on 3 different leagues, and didn't have any trouble getting back into it, my teammates were worried the first week, But it felt good getting back to my

    normal activity.

    If you can find someone to bowl for you for the first month you should be ok, then you won't have to sit out the whole season.

    I bought Nexium Mupps 3mo supply and a box of Supertol cost $158. I could have done with just 2 week supply of the Mupps as they will give you a 2 week supply and a 4 dose box of the Supertol.

    By the 30 day point I was able to swollow sm. whole or 1/2 lg pills with no problem. Should have bought Omiperzol 20mg. My mom purchased this, 1 box had 2 60cap bottles and was $16. This is what I take now and have to get it at Walmart 42 caps for $18.

    For the trip home I took Chickem bollion cubes, and the drink mix for Water, asked for apple juice on the plane, they also brought cup of hot watere for the broth.

    Hope this helps you DJackson.
