    Nausea and light headedness 4 months post op

    Hi, 5 months and I have had my gallbladder removed and have been in pain for so long. I have also lost half my weight and hair! It was not explained to me and the protein is terrible to get in. I am so sorry to hear about all your issues to. How long ago did you have it done? I hope you are ok

    Where do you get your protein goal from?

    Hi, pancakes yum. How much protein would them 5 give you? I have 6 tablespoons of Greek yogurt, three eggs and some berries in it every morning. It gives me around 30 grams to start the day. I do not know what else to have that gives you high protein. I do not have protein powder, my surgeon here in Tasmania thinks it is not a good habit to get into. I have not really cooked anything, basically living off yogurt, prawns, tuna, cottage cheese as I feeling sick and heavy in the chest all the time. I had my op in August, second one to remove gallbladder and stretch the bowel a little so I do not get malnourished again 6 weeks ago. Any advice please

    Hi, I am not sure what you mean by the 4 hour window. The nurses give me my thyroid meds with my vitamin, is that not suppose to happen? When I go home I might start taking mine of a night, what is the preferred time to take after food please?
