Post op sinus infection



Recommended Posts

Hello! I was sleeved on 7/28 and everything went well. After coming home from the hospital, I developed a nasty sinus infection that has thrown me totally off. Since Sunday, I have had three different liquid meds to take to knock this thing out but I know I am not even close to getting the Protein and Vitamins I need. So now I'm in panic mode and don't even know what to do. I don't want to eat anything or get out of bed. Any advice/tips to get in as much protein as possible? Also, what vitamins seem to be doing well for everyone? Thanks so much!

My surgery was monday and I am fearing sinus issues. Hopefully it is just from the oxygen.

I hope you recover soon! I tried samples of Bariatric Advantage multi! YUKKKK it has a bitter taste. The Multivitamin fusion is nice it actually tastes like flinstone kids Vitamins. The cherry bariatric advantage B12 and calcium citrate chewable from bariatric advantage are ok. I received samples from my Drs office and the bariatric dept at the hospital. If you can get samples before purchasing a bottle ask for samples!! Your Drs office or bariatric unit at the hospital may have some samples 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...

        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.
