Surgery Tomorrow, December 1st



Recommended Posts

Well, the day has arrived and I am very nervous and scared. I know I need to have this done and have done so much research. My doctor is one of the best and I have complete confidence in him. I'm sure it's just fear of the unknown.

Is it normal to worry about things like "How am I going to take my pills after the surgery??"

Any advice from sleeve vets would be much appreciated!!

Thanks :-)

Yes worrying is a given! I think most of us were worried of all the unknowns but you get through the surgery and you will learn Along the way. It's impossible to tell you exactly what to expect since we are all different but if you find your self needing advice...just put it out here and you can bet someone will have an answer for you. Good luck tomorrow and I wish you a speedy recovery! Keep us updated!

@@DENISE83 so excited for you! My surgery is in 19 days and my dr called me in tablets of all my meds so that I can crush them. Hope that helps!

Wow! You are doing it!

My surgery is December 10th. I would love to hear about your experiences--even from the night before.

If you feel up to it of course. ;-)

      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.
