Call your surgeon and see what he says. Stress is not going to make it better. Rest often so your body can fight this, drink a lot of Fluid and relax.

wash wash wash your hands! I can't stress this enough...I'm almost OCD about it, for real. Everyone (husband AND all 3 kids) came down with that horrible swine flu that went around a couple years ago. I was taking care of everyone and running myself ragged. I even took 2 of my kids to the emergency room (trapped in a Mustang with two sickos ..UGH! lol) but I washed my hands anytime I had to hand them meds, food, went to the bathroom...ANYTHING. I never came down with it and the only thing I can figure is because I'm so freaky about washing my hands. Seriously, it prevents a lot!

      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.
