I pray that you start feeling better soon.

I am a week out and feel pretty good.. I have very little pain around my largest incision. I normally sleep at an angle and found doing the first few days and on occasions now that I am sleeping on my back.

I have the same problem. Everything feels pretty good except for the large incision onmy left. It makes moving very painful and I have to position myself at a ridiculous angle and then stay still in order to sleep.< /p>

YEP. I slept in a chair for about 9 days. it was the most comfortable thing for me. I didn't have a recliner but I had this large leather chair and a foot rest. Good enough, so thats what I tell people to do. A recliner would have been even better though

I slept in the recliner for the first few days till i was able to sleep in bed. Now at 3 weeks out I'm sleeping on my stomach again. Been doing that for about 2 weeks now.

      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.
