My surgery went well. Thank you so much for all the thoughts and prayers. Due to extreme health issues I have I spent an extra night in the hospital, plus we are two hours away from the hospital. We are on our way home. I will be so glad to be able to sleep in my bed tonight. I have not had any vomiting or nausea at all. My potassium levels dropped but I had potassium by IV do not recommend the liquid potassium, it tastes nasty!!

I will update more later. My follow up with surgeon is in one week.

Same here. Just got released about an hour ago. I'm wearing a binder bc one of my incisions is just causing a burning pain. Stupid pharmacy has yet to retrieve their voice mails so they haven't filled my prescription for pain meds. Dreading the next few hours. Little gassy but overall ok.

Glad you made it to the other side! I'm 3 weeks out and I can tell you although these next few days may be rough, it gets easier and easier and it doesn't take that long to begin feeling better!

Congrats on your surgery :)

      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.
