Surgery with Dr Illan



Recommended Posts

I still can't believe my surgery is done. I get to the hospital almost 11am and they start working on me right away. My lab work, my height, my weight, chest ex ray. Then we take a minute to meet the Dr on the floor and get some medical history and tell me what to expect. Omar (the coordinator) was right when he said they have done so many surgeries. He was their to meet me when I got to the hospital and helped fill out the paperwork. I ended up upgrading to hospital florence that is very nice. Well after I saw the cardiologist and got my EKG and some more medical history I meet Dr Illan (that is very young by the way) I didn't have that many questions for him but he was able to go over the process that will be taken. Next thing you know I get wheeled off to surgery and before you know it I am being wheeled back to my room with a mild soreness in my stomach. I know I have to walk and I have been doing the best I can but at first they would not let me walk until the anesthesia was completely worn off. So I am in my room resting and happy as can be to be on the losers bench.

Today is 85% and getting better. Still can't believe I am doing so well. All of a sudden in the middle of the night and during one of my walks threw the halls I started feeling myself again. Thank you to everyone for your well wishes.

I am back home now and enjoyed my hole experience. I stayed busy at the Hotel (which is beautiful by the way) I had to see the dentist and got plenty of shopping and they have some excellent broth across from the hotel. Omar will take you and I can't thank him and Dr Illan for making this hole experience so wonderful.

      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.
