I had my egd last Friday evening (fun Friday, right?). Anyways when I got carted to te endo room my surgeon greeted me and ask if I had any questions. I informed him that I was very nervous because I have never been 'put under' any anesthesia. He explained the drug to me which was propafol (sp?). Which he followed with "don't worry Michael jackson used it". I said "really not helping since he never woke up".

Probably not as funny typed up but it made me laugh :)

Ha! I had the same conversation with my doc at my EGD. I said "is this the Michael Jackson drug?" and he said "Yes but we know how to use it."

Eeek, poor attempt at humor by your doc! He was probably just trying to comfort you with a little humor.

It was very bad humor but I still laughed. And he said the same thing that they know how to use it and I was being monitored. :)

      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.
