hello and welcome! Hang in there, it does get better! Do you have meds for the acid/heartburn? If not, you might want to contact your surgeon to see about getting some.

welcome welcome welcome :)

wonderful group of people here :)

read and learn :)

use the search botton in the right hand corner :)

but we llllluv to answer any and all questions from newbies :unsure:

you are only one week out!!!

these issues you talk about are common to many :wacko:

as @@Sleevarilla said call your doc asking him to give you something for the acid/heartburn

or example, per my doc - i have taken Prilosa immediately PO :)

being wiped out/tired is also common

est, rest, rest - take things slowly (if you are able to) :)

family, friends around to help you??

when you are able to get out of the house- walk as much as possible (don't overdue - go slowly at first)

if you need to stay home, walk and walk around the house

make sure you drink plenty of Water (especially at this early stay)

popsicles are great

sip Water very slowly!!

good luck :)

Shavonna, very happy for you. I would stay away from anything acidic like Tomato Soup and fruit. Hang in there. You should feel good real soon. I never had a sick day and felt wonderful, and I feel bad for those who do not have it as easy. Always trust your body and gut instinct to tell you something is really wrong, but maybe having a restful weekend, you will feel better on Monday. Good luck!

      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.
