I felt like all I did was pee the first week (of course that's cause I was drinking as much Water as an elephant!)

I've found that anytime I've been under anesthesia and/or on pain meds, my bladder is slow to respond. I've had 2 c-sections and lap band and have had the same problem every time.

If you are unable to pee you need to speak to your Dr urgently. It is important that your kidneys are working properly. After my hysterectomy I was fine whilst on the drip but once they took it out I obviously wasn't drinking enough , therefore not peeing enough and the nurses were very concerned. I had to consciously make myself drink. You may not be drinking enough so make sure you drink the recommended amounts even if you are not thirsty. If you are drinking and still not peeing then get back to your Dr - fast.

Were you catheterized during your surgery? That can cause some residual problems a couple days after,

If you're having problems urinating I would contact your doctor immediately. It may be nothing, but it could be a urinary tract infection or even kidney issues too,

Whatever the case, it's much better safe than sorry.

      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.
