What?? I took Tylenol because I was told not to take ibuprofen for 6 weeks after surgery. I am prone to Migraines so I have to take 1000mg of either Advil or Tylenol at least 6 times a month. I am one year out and alive.
Who said you can't take those ever again??

I made a correction on my post. I misread the aid. Tylenol is ok.

You should see a specialist about your migraines. I have had bad ones all my life as well. I finally got a doctor who has given me natural preventatives that help keep me from getting so many. You can buy butterbur at any healthfood store and it does amazing things with lessening the frequency of migraines and then I carry maxalt which melts on the tongue for sudden attacks. You take it at the first aura and it can knock it down before it gets to the wanting to rip your own heart out so you don't have to hear that loud beating anymore phase. That much ibuprofen especially when there are better and more effective treatments just isn't good for you.

      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.
