    I've tried Fairlife. Don't like that it has Stevia, but yes, drinking a protein drink.

    I just went over some of my discharge papers that I didn't see before. It does sight a lot of blood lose and that post surgery anemia. Also metabolic acidosis. Says it can make you dizzy

    I do try to eat all those things, I am satiated after not eating that much.

    I feel better today. Actually, yesterday was the best I felt post surgery. Not my hip really, but me, my body. Did wake up in pain at some point and now I have an almost aggravated nerve pain. I am struggling trying to eat well since I don't have much of an appetite.

    My cousin had hip replacement decades ago and had an allergic reaction to morphine. I had low blood pressure in the hospital. Also saw in my records , they were watching me for a blood transfusion, but didn't think I needed it. I just started taking my vitamins again. Always have a problem...

    Thanks. I have posterior approach. That's what my surgeon does and I picked him for his results. I actually think I am having a bad reaction to the meds, or lack there of, now. Still dizzy and have a headache. I am icing and it does help. Super sore and painful

    My PT told me to ice for 15-20 minutes at a time. Anything over that is not harmful, but you don't see the benefits.

    I am not icing that frequently.probanly 3 times a day. Yes, taking 1000 Tylenol every 8 hrs. Doesn't seem to do anything. The night is the worst!

    Day 6, I can't believe that! Consumed all of my oxi, not all at once, 20 over 6 days, so not over doing, but I still have pain. Ice helps. Elevation helps. What else can I do?
