Cough and cold dont't feel too good



Recommended Posts

I got a really bad cold that continued with a cough I've had it for a few days and the cough was really bad. So, I am worried that if LB can slip? due to excessive coughing? It feels sore or light pain if I take a deep breath.:confused:

I am feeling very tight right now so I am trying to take it easy with liquids only.

So has anyone had a really bad cough related to a cold and had any issues..any info would be very helpful.

I am new to this so I hope I did this right:redface:

You need to worry much more about vomiting than coughing. I have not heard of a slip caused by coughing, but I am not a doctor. Make sure that you have same anti-nausea medication just in case. Staying with liquids will help along with a cough suppresant that is friendly to your banded stomach.

If the cough is really bad, don't hesitate to call your doctor for suggestions.

I called my doctor the other day because I had started coughing just a bit and was worried about the same thing. I was told not to worry that the biggest problem would just be the pain since I just had surgery.

      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.
