Hi All, so I am 2.days post op and things are.not turning out as simple as I thought it would. the procedure went great but by the time they got me to recovery it was about 7pm and I would need to be there 2 to 4 hours so they keep me overnight so they could monitor me, I ended staying all day and just when I was going to be release my (never had a high number over 136) blood pressure is up to 170 and my heart rate since this morning is very low, like 45... has anyone else had this issues? so needless to say the would not release my. uugghhh.

Not that I am a medical professional, but many times your blood pressure and pulse will spike because of anxiety or shock. This is temporary probably but you can help things along by doing some deep breathing and meditation.

It's a good thing they kept you. I had the something similar - BP was 150-160/90-100, pulse was 55-60 consistently throughout my hospitalization. By my 2-week follow up appointment my BP was down to 114/66.

      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.
