First post op follow up visit



Recommended Posts

I had my first follow up visit today. 2 weeks post op. I have to say I was a little disappointed in my visit. was there maybe 10 minutes. Dr just asked me how I was feeling and told me I could do anything I wanted now as far as activity. I had several questions about hunger and food, but that was kinda blown off. I actually had to ask him to look at my surgery site to make sure all was well. I did have a pretty big hematoma and was concerned about it. I felt like I drove over 2 hours to see him so the least he could do was check out the surgery site!! so I am thankful I have found this website, a lot of my questions have been answered on here. so thanks everyone!!!

Unfortunately, that seems to be the norm. My doc is great but he's no Chatty Cathy and it's obvious he needs to be somewhere else real quick.

My dr is the same way. Always in a hurry with everything. That is why we all have each other here!

Yep, they breeze in and out pretty quick. Mine will stop and answer questions if I ask, but if I don't stop him, I get about 5 minutes. Except if I bring up exercising or Protein diet, these seem to be his passion and he's all in.

      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.
