I even just sip an I'm not eating anything yet..I am barely taking in fluids that's why I'm still in hospital hooked to iv. ...I new I would end up in ER dehydrated. My dr agreed he left it up to me so I'm staying. How long since your surgery? It hurts bad...

I have GERD for yrs but never spasms with it.he has probontix an several other meds coming thru..if I don't drink it's fine only happens when something passes thru..it's bad when it starts. Surgeon told me it's common when working on the hernia...

      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.
