I am also on several meds for depression and reflux and they even told mr to take them on the day of the surgery. I reviewed with my prescribing doc whether she thought i should stop for a while and she said no. I had to take one in liquid form and another had to be cut in half. Does your regular doc know that you are off your meds? I would check with her to see what s/he thinks befor your next visit with the surgeon.

I am bipolar, and I am on a boat load:fish2: of meds. My surgeon is fully aware, and his only concern was that the meds could be crushed. He would never take me off of my meds, as they are life saving and required so I don't get a one-way ticket to the psych ward.:sick

I don't know what kind of meds you take, but if they are important I would call your surgeon or doctor and sort it out. Maybe you can replace them with more suitable drugs or maybe it was an oversight.

      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.
