After two weeks the injections were a piece of cake lol. I am on my last dose today. It’ll be nice to take 1 thing out of my routine

I was so nervous about this I contacted my Surgeon's Nurse and I will have to do this too. I already have a needle phobia. Ugh, I'm more afraid of this than the rest. 😞

It really wasn't bad. They're tiny little needles.

In the grand scheme of life, lovenox is just an annoying pimple!

I got pills instead but I did get an option and I skipped on the shot, 30 days of sticking is way too much for me.

      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.
