Wow the day has come. I don't know about anyone else but I'm scared out of my mind. I want to do it but now I think my nerves are getting to me. My surgery is at 10:30am . Any advice would help me.

I would try to relax and think happy thoughts about all of the benefits you will get from this. Once the team starts prepping you the medications will help calm your nerves.

Don't get discouraged this afternoon if you have some pain or discomfort which is completely normal on the day of surgery. If they offer you pain meds take them, or if they give you a PCA (pain button) use it. Just do what the medical staff says and you should feel much better shortly after and be well on your way to recovery and success!

You are going to do great. I had mine done on Monday and I am feeling much much better today. The first day was rough just take your pain medicine and walk as much as you can it really does help.

      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.
