Im a week out of surgery . I hear all this talk about protein shakes but i was never told when i can start or even what kind can someone inform me or should i wait to see my surgeon on thursday?

I've heard a wide range of Post-op instructions as far as what we should be eating. Some come out of the hospital on clear liquids, some on full (like me) and some go right to pureed. Call your doctors/NUTs office and ask them what you should be doing. That is your safest bet. Good luck and congratulations on your surgery!!

Call your dr.?Dont wait to see him. Dindt you get a package or instructions of post- op thing to do from your doctor???

You weren't given a guide??!!!! Were you told clear liquids this first week? Broth, sugar free Jell-O, popsicles!!!

I would def call your doctors office and ask. Everyone's dr instructions post op are different.
