Get banded on June 27...how long before I can start golfing again? Anyone else have any experience with golfing after surgery? Thanks!

Well Brother, I would guess 6 weeks. I have been chomping at the bit to ride our greatPumpkin (Goldwing GL1800) and have felt great. Was told by our Dr. just because I'm healed on the outside, the insides need the time to recover. So don't push it like we "men" do, I have been a really good boy because I want to stay on schedule!

My doc won't let me do anything other than walking for at least 4 weeks after surgery. Other docs could be different.

I went to the driving range 6 weeks after surgery. I had no issues.

      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...

        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.
