Just Discharged And Heading Back To The Er



Recommended Posts

I did a barium swallow this morning with about 6 big gulps of 2 different bariums. I thought that was already alot. Then i get back to.my room and ask for ice chips, no Water or ice in over 24hrs. The nurse comes back with a huge jug of ice water saying to do my best to get 4 small cups of water in. Basically just spit up a blood clot with blood....my hospital is an hour away...

Amazing how different each hospital is. The first day I had nothing but, the surgery and IV, Second day in the afternoon swallow test...had to wait in that radiology room for 30 minutes, back to my room and was given a medicine cup and 1 cup of ice chips and Water. Told to sip 1 medicine cup an hour. Later on nurse ordered me liquid dinner....SF Jello, chicken broth, tea, carnation instant Breakfast with skim milk. Next morning same stuff and out the door. I don't understand why they'd just give you Water then have you go home.

How long were you in the hospital? I sure hope you're doing ok.

      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.
