I made it ok. They put me out close to 8. I was through recovery and back to a room by 1045. In recovery I had some pain, mostly in the area right beneath my sternum. Felt like the worst case of heart burn ever. The pain has eased up, but still getter my pain med every 3 hours. Have already walked the whole floor twice. Now waiting for my "water works" to start flowing again.

OMG....the hardest thing about this surgery so far has been trying to urinate. I had to get an in and out cath this afternoon. Just spent 30 minutes in bathroom straining. I finally had to drag the garbage can over and put my feet up on it to isolate where and how I needed to push. Got the job done, but I am wore out.

      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.
