And I am having a lot of pain and gas that won't come out. I am feeling pretty horrible.

Try going out for a short walk. It helped with me.

I'm sorry that you are uncomfortable...walk, walk, walk...that is the "magic pill" in this case. While it might be hard to believe, this will be in your rear view mirror before you know it

I agree with the above. Walking helps gas pains better than anything. The pain and discomfort will pass!!

I also had surgery on Tuesday, so I'm right there with you! Make sure that you are walking like everyone says... I actually feel good when I'm moving and hurt more when I've been sitting too long.

Also don't let your pain meds wear off yet. I accidentally did that yesterday and boy did I know it!!! If they said to take it every four hours, take it every 4 hours. Plus gasX is helpful too :-)

You can also try alternating ice and heat. I forget which does what, but they both do good things to help with healing and pain.

Good luck!!!

Even when you aren't walking, doing something like rocking in a rocking chair can help a lot. Any kind of movement is 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.
