I had surgery on Tuesday and have not had an opportunity to sleep because the pain is unbearable. When does the pain from the insisions fade? Pain is worst than I imagined

Keep up with pain meds. Keep hydrated. And walk through the pain. Make sure none of the incisions are red or oozing. I felt good on day 5. Every day will be better than the day before. You can do it, this part is the hardest. I'm 2 months post op and I've lost 57 lbs. Welcome to the losers bench. Good luck!

I just had surgery yesterday and for the first 4 hours after surgery I was on morphing and was hurting so bad! The morphine wasn't doing anything even after she upped it.

So they called the surgeon and put me on something else and it's been like night and day! Ask for something different then what they have given you. I was so tense my back was starting to hurt and I couldn't sleep.

Hope you are feeling better soon!

      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...

        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.
