Every surgeon is different. For me I was not allowed to take any medications the night of my surgery (which was on Monday, 2.15) but everything was back to normal on Tue morning. I didn't have any problems when I started taking meds again.

All questions to ask your surgeon and/or your prescribing physician. Online forum members can't possibly advise you on medication dosing.

I have medications I cannot miss, I was allowed to take specific ones that morning and was back on everything that evening. I think I was almost as worried about this as the surgery itself, one of my meds if you miss more than a dose you have to go inpatient to get back on.

I took one pill at a time, took time between and everything went down fine no pain or anything.

      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.
