I packed my phone, phone charger, and extra clothes (for when I got discharged). I honestly didn't really need anything else. I was out of it most of the time because I was on Dilaudid and Hydrocodone. You'll most likely be too sleepy to do much.

That's funny! I packed TwO sets of pjs because I HATE the smell of hospital scrubs! I packed the chapstick and someone told me to buy breathe strips or spray because you get stale taste in ur mouth from not eating

I'm Wednesday..... good luck!

      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.
