And oh my has the loser bench grown!!!! May has been a fantastic month!!!

Got home today' date=' was in for 3¹/² days, low oxygen levels and a fever kept me in. For pain I had morphine pump and liquid Oxy. They let me keep my pump until this morning, and sent me home with the liquid. Also got a prescription for nausea patch that goes behind my ear if needed. Gas has been my enemy because I can't pass any. Sipping on nectar protein, when mixed with water tastes like lemon tea, it contains 23g of protein per scoop. When I get more strength I'm gonna try some of the recipes they have me.

Gas was my enemy too - big time - fely like I was dying with pain - was advised alpine tea and have not had a problem since :)

So my surgery was postponed to June 13th bc my scope showed a small ulcer. I'm still staying to cheer you all on and see how everyone is doing.

I get to go home this morning. I will be able to rest a lot better. My surgeon says I will have to be sipping all day to get the adequate hydration in order to not dehydrated. It's tough for me to get the liquids down. Which is why I was here 3 night's. I guess my best friend will be my cup for a while. He says it will get easier. Is it tough for everyone else to get liquids in?

I'm having the same issue...It really is an effort. I had a few teaspoons of protein jello this morning...felt like I was going to burst.

how do you make protein jello?

I add unflavored protein powder to the cold water portion of the recipe on the box. I put it in a shaker so it mixes well, then add the hot water and gelatin. Put the mixture in pre chilled containers and refrigerate.

This is awesome thank you!

Tomorrow I do all day liquid diet, surgery Monday. I am kinda calm right now but I think it I the calm before the storm. Gotta take that nasty stuff to clean ya out so my tomorrow is kinda shot. I think I will probably be a nervous driving to hospital. Right now not to bad . Good luck to us all and meet you on the losers bench. By the way the ones who have already had surgery. HOW R U DOING?
