Side Effects of Surgery and Supplementation



Recommended Posts

I am sitting here at 5 months losing 52 lbs. I am happy. I take the Multi Vitamins, Calcium, d3 and B12 required. But I also take Biotin, cranberry, probiotic and a anti-inflammatory (which spell check won't let me add).

I visited with my aunt last weekend and she was amazed at my face. I had Bells Palsy 7 years ago. I was left with one side drooping and hearing loss. A month prior to that I had sudden hearing loss syndrome. So between both of those, I have pretty moderate hearing loss. I have tried everything they told me to do but hearing and droopiness only got a little better.

Also went in for another hearing assessment a week ago. He told me that I was hearing better.

Solo I account all of this to having my surgery and taking supplements. Quite a nice side effect I think.

OMG... I had 'Sudden Deafness Syndrome' in 2001. I was hospitalized for over a week to try and get my hearing back. I got like 75% back but if I am in a loud room and someone tries talking into my effected ear... I can't hear. You should inbox me. I have a theory about this sudden deafness.

      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.
