I am 6 wks post op. I feel like I have had the hardest time. I wish they could put me back like I was.

I have had pills stuck in my throat.

Nausea

And now I'm dealing with Constipation. ughhhh

Can I get ONE good day??? Is that too much to ask for?

That is horrible to hear. I wish you had an easier time up until now. You'll get past this and it will a distant memory. A war story you can tell in the future. And they say this is the easy way out, huh.

All your going through is normal. Each day you will feel a little better. What worries me is the people that post they went to Disneyland the next day or a week later are running. Your body has been through alot and its going to take time to heal. It took me till about two months till I felt normal again. No surgeon or therapist can prepare you for what you really go thru physically and emotionally. And of course everyone is different but you will be just fine and in a short time you will have no regrets!
Take care and hope your feeling better!

Well for me things got so much better in weeks 7 and 8 once I started back on real nonmushy food. I had more energy and the bathroom got back to my normal routine. I had very little nausea post op, and as I tried new foods that did happen a few times when I tried something I wasn't ready for. Now, over 15 months out I don't have any food restrictions really.
The pills...well, I still do watch how big my pills are. I cut them in half if I can. I take krill oil since the fish oil pills are so large.
It will get better.

      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.
