Good to hear Sandie! I actually spent most of the day in the hospital getting 2 bags of fluids and I'm going back again Monday for the same and lab work. I feel better with the fluids but still feel the shakiness in my legs and I'm sure that's protein related. I'm actually enjoying some chili...
Sandie I'm in the same boat. Can't get all my fluids and also can't get in all my protein. So very weak...and tired of it! Can't really give up because you don't have a choice, but on the other hand I'm also struggling with asking myself if I made the right decision.

thanks for your reply. I did speak with the on call people who told me to stop all dairy and get some gaviscon to take through the night and followup with them in the morning. i'm still burning pretty good, so i will definitely be calling them in the morning.
Hello! I am new and this is my first post. I am 20 days post-op and have been struggling physically and emotionally. I'm still very weak in doing regular things, like taking a shower. I'm pretty sure it's a result of just not getting enough nutrition, despite following my vitamin rules. I...
