So, 1/31/13 is my surgery date,

My surgeon did his b/w and my PTT ( clotting time) is long, meeting with a hemotologist this week.

Went and ddid my endoscopy and I have ulcers in my esophagus, the Dr was amazed I was not crippled by it. ( the joys of a very high pain tolerance).

All things are fine and I am glad to address them all now. I am on meds for the ulcers and OMG I have not had hearburn in 4 days, its like a whole new world! I just need to repeat the endoscopy in Dec to make sure I am healed which the Dr says I will be.

In the interim, I have gained 6lbs, my knees hurt and my kids are driving me batty! LOL I am scared for surgery but I am soooo looking forward to feeling good!

      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.
