Wondering how many days/weeks you will need to feel like getting out of the house

I know it is different for everyone but just wanted to get an idea about getting back to normal...so to speak.

For me my first outing was to church and I was a week and two days out and I felt perfectly fine...now at 2w3d I feel completely normal :)

My first outing was back to the hospital but that's a different story. UGH So after that I think I went to the grocery store about a week after my second surgery. Felt pretty good just got tired. Just be really CAREFUL and don't over do it! When I went to my first Dr. appointment I reinjured my self getting out of the car and good grief did it hurt.

I was released from hospital on a Sunday and their pharmacy was closed. My first outing was from hospital to Kroger. I walked around grocery store while waiting for my meds.

I had surgery on wed, went home on Friday and stopped at two stores on my way home. After that I went out with my mom on Monday for a few hours in town to get some fresh air and walk. It was nice. I went out for 2-3 hrs each day that week with her to walk around because of the snow. I then would come home and take a map as I was totally done.

      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.
