I dont see why not if you havent had surgery yet but are you being treated for it. You dont want to go in to surgery with an infection.

Are you asking because you are on a pre op diet that only allows Protein shakes? If so, talk with your surgeons office. If you're not on a pre-op diet, have a bit for sure.

Are you on any medication for the infection?

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?

i would call your dr and schedule an appt to get meds to help you with this and def advise your lap band surgeon. things happen, just keep your dr's informed :)

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.

am so glad.

i would guess if you are on liquids, i dont see why not, but on my pre op, they advised me

to use no sugar...so i guess that is your decision.

feel better soon

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
