I was told that starting Protein and Vitamins about 2 weeks before Sx will help in recovery. Has anyone else heard or tried this. My date is 14 days away!!!!!

I was told by my PCO to increase my protein prior to surgery. Helps with the healing.

I've read several books that recommend beginning a high protein diet and adding a multi-vitamin, iron & calcium at least 2 weeks before surgery. They aid in healing and reducing fatigue & weakness during the surgical recovery. Vickie J.

I was told the same thing, I actually started about 2 months before my surgery. Good luck with your wl journey and keep us posted. Tammy -44
