I had my surgery three years ago and usually I do pretty well with it. I have been seriously stuck once and had to go to my doctor and get an unfill to let it pass. I got my surgery in Phoenix in high school. I am now a freshman in college three hours away, and I have had something stuck for about three days. I tried meat tenderizer yesterday because I think it was a part of a roast that got stuck. That didn't work. So I'm wondering if anyone has any other tips for something that's been stuck for awhile. Should I keep trying to meat tenderizer? Maybe it takes multiple tries to break it down? Or does anyone know any good doctors in Tucson that could help me? It's really painful and I hate being away from my doctor. Help please!

Chew on 3 papaya tablets! It's a natural enzyme and it helps me every time! I feel relief within 5 minutes! You can get them at Walmart or Walgreens in the Vitamin section for about 5 bucks. Good luck!

How much did they take out? I'm going to drive to El Paso day after tomorrow to see my surgeon for an unfill. Its a 4 hour drive each way, but I am having a hard time getting much down. I hope he doesnt take TOO much out... just enough so I can drink more liquids! I'm sooooooo thirsty! :)

He only ended up taking about half out, but he thinks that should actually be a good amount so I might not need to get it filled again. Good luck!

Thanks! I lost 6.5 lbs in 2 weeks and he was concerned. I ended up having 2.5 cc taken out and I felt an immediate difference. Hopefully it wont be too much out. I have an appointment in January, just in case I need a tad more put in. :)

      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.
