Sorry I've been MIA!



Recommended Posts

I have my in-laws in from Ireland as well as my mom up from Atlanta taking care of me so I haven't been on here in a bit.

I'm 6 days post-op and so far so good. I was supposed to go back to work tomorrow, but I'm going to take the whole week. I'm scared to tell my manager, but he's been saying all along that he'd be supportive...we'll see!

I'm sore at my port site, but the gas hasn't been too bad. I'm on Roxicet (TMI...that also means I'm on stool softeners, YUCK!). I've been trying to get out and about but I get pretty tired. How's everyone else doing?

Hi Megan - I had surgery yesterday.. I'm sore but other than that feel good - I am not nauseous and have energy. Today I went for a 1.5 mile walk. The left shoulder pain has gone now. BUt my whole body is sore like I worked out even my legs. I can understand my abs and all. My friends husband is an anesthesiologist and he says the anesthesia does that. I had a great drug to prevent nausea it was a study and i felt great after.

      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.
