Hi! I’m almost 7 weeks post op and I’m dealing with some serious abdominal cramping and I’m wondering if this is normal or if I should begin to worry?? I ate nothing out of the ordinary leading up to this. Around 7 am out of NOWHERE I got what felt like awful awful bowel cramps. I ran to the bathroom, had some diarrhea and the cramps are still severe almost 2 hours later. I just got off of my 12 hour night shift at the hospital so I figured I would just sleep it off after getting home but I can’t even sleep because it feels so so bad ):

Should I be freaking out? Cause I’m kinda freaking out ):

Maybe you're suddenly lactose intolerant...? That would cause bowel cramps and diarrhea. Hope you feel better soon.

Could be a stomach virus also, watch it and your electrolyte/hydration levels.

As always contact physicians if things get worse with time instead of better, don't wait too long

Get well soon💝

Do you still have your gallbladder?

      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.
