Hey everyone,

I just had a quick question, when you guys have a stomach ache do you guys drink flat ginger ale/ flat, diet ginger ale? I know, at least for me, ginger ale was my go to (before surgery) when I was feeling nauseous or had an upset stomach. Does it just depend on the person at this point? What other remedies do you guys use now for upset stomach or nausea?

Oh and I am a little over a month out from surgery (October 24th was my surgery date).

That would make me bloated. Even though it's flat. ( 4 months post. ) What is causing the tummy ache

That’s the thing, we don’t know what’s causing my stomach ache or my constant need to gag and vomit. So I am in the emergency room trying to figure that out.

Zofran. Ginger tea. Crystallized ginger. Lots of other forms of ginger. Seasickness acupressure bands.

Hi, I am 8 months post op, Dr recommended avoiding soda. But I just had 4 oz of ginger ale, it felt weird and felt bloated, I guess avoid as much as possible and stick to the plan...

If you want ginger buy real ginger or ginger pills. Truth is gingerale has so little ginger in it that it's more placebo effect from an old wives tale than anything

      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.
