I am 9 days in my post op and Ivan concerned b/c I am not hungry. I've been sipping my Protein shakes but it's taking me about 3 days to get through. I am doing 1/2 cup of chicken broth. But that's forcing myself. Any suggestions?

Gas, crampy and shoulder pain
cubanakeeper replied to Daisy1244's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am 9 days old. Use ur heating pad. That really helped me. The gas will come not. I took Mylanta. B/c my Dr said the pain med would, as my granny says, stop me up.., so Mylanta has helped with the gas as well. Good job! Hang in there! -

Hello, I'm having my surgery the second week in Dec. I have a UTI and want to know if its ok to drink a little cranberry juice?

Yes. I am on the pre-op diet now. I do have medication for it and when I met with the surgeon the other day, he told me I should be fine by surgery time. My mom made the cranberry juice suggestion.
