Starting over- Changing my doctor



Recommended Posts

So after much internal debate I have made the decision to change my doc. I never really cared for my surgeon- he is one of those who does it for the money- kind of a jerk (although I hear he wasn't always like that.) He does do great surgeries and I have no complaints about that but the aftercare leave A LOT to be desired. I have pretty much been flying solo with this- no nutritionist haven't spent more than 15 minutes total with my doc since the surgery- 3 fills- last on in July. So anyhow I am kind of excited- I want the new guy to be strict and have rules and I am excited to get a fill under flouroscopy!!!

Has anyone else changed their doc?

Yes, I changed doctors this month and it was a great choice! At the consult he explained to me that I would be meeting with the person that does the fills more than him but if there is ever a problem with my fills then he will come do it. My past doctor's office was very weird.....and she kept giving me these tiny fills of .1, .2, .5 and I wasn't feeling anything for almost 7 months. My last fill was on 9-7th with her and I went to the new doctor on 9-16. He gave me another fill this month and it was enough to feel something!! Finally!!!

      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.
