We should come up with a name for all of us. lol

I hope everyone is healing well and getting their walks and fluids in!

Remember, you're recovering, so don't push yourself too hard.

I finally get to go home tomorrow! I am so blessed I made it through the surgery, and all the trials and tribulations. Just about everything that could go wrong, did, but I'm feeling lots better now.

Carol, so sorry you had a rough time. At least you are in the right place to control your pain. Make sure they allow for Probiotics after you finish your antibiotics. Best of luck and keep in touch. I was there for 11 days.... It sucked but I thought of it as a vacation from my four kids and husband. By the time I went home I really missed them and they missed me!!!

@@Heavy to Healthy Thank you so much for writing and letting me know I wasn't alone on this journey. I am still not quite out of the woods, still have this infection, but am on antibiotics, wound is packed, that comes out in the AM, and we wait to see if it will close on it's own.

I know much of my nausea is being brought on by the antibiotics and still, so many pills I have to take. I just want a little relief...so I can get my nourishment in. I'm getting my Water in ok

But the antibiotic gave me nausea and diarrhea, and I'm not sure why but the hospital didn't give me my Zyrtec for a week, so I get out into the world today and it's full of pollen and I'm choking every time I lay down. Blowing my nose, miserable.... I feel like a big old mess. LOL

I could use some prayers and good thoughts. SO I thank all of you have been so kind, and sweet, and positive. It's made a difference.

I just keep praying to wake up for another day.

      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.
