I have been having issues with pain management lately. I was off all pain meds by my 1 week post op but was having some pain in my rib cage. I asked my surgeon about it and he basically brushed it off saying it's nothing. I saw him again this last week. Still in pain in my ribs and he again brushed it off saying they will be tender for a while.

for the past 48 hours the pain has gotten to the point I had to start back on pain meds. I've used ice heat everything I can think of to help this pain. I'm also on my period and the pain seems to have gotten worse with the on set of my period.

I am so thinking my bed needs to be replaced. We have had it for 6 years and we are both heavy set. It has a lot of sagging areas. Laying flat on the floor seems to help a little.

@@spdmonkeymama Do you still have your gallbladder? It sounds like gallstones to me.

It's on the left side not right side though? Lower left. Today was better.

You can have pain in your left side from your gall bladder. It can also make you have chest pains.

Good to know! I see my pcp Tuesday and I'm going to talk to him. I also have si joint dysfunction and after losing 50 lbs my joints have slipped out of place again.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
