I know they are necessary, but they hurt! I'm down to the last 2 and I'm so tempted to skip them!

No skipping! You can do two more It better than getting a blood clot. You can do it!

Don't skip your last two shots!! Several years ago I had surgery & I ended up with a blood clot in my right lung. Spent a week in the hospital hooked up to a bag of Heprin. I was very ill & happy I lived to tell the tale. I'm on Warfarin for life because of a heart issue so I have to stop my Warfarin when I have any surgery or dental work done. Believe me, I was only to glad to give myself shots.

I didn't have shots. My surgeon implanted and IVC filter instead.

I didn't have to do them. Strange. I remember getting one in the hospital then that was it.

      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...

        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.
