Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Someone remind me that no I really can't drink coffee since my gallbladder surgery, no matter how exhausted I am. ION, ouch.

The status is NOT quo.

I keep meaning to do a DNA test.

Sweetie, there's literally one in the dining room that I told you I got extra when I did mine.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

You have to give up coffee after losing your gallbladder? That's not an easy one.

I don't have to, but every time I drink it, it tries to kill me. I gave in and tried a latte yesterday because I was so tired and had an energetic toddler to go home too. It was not a good idea.

Hubby couldn't eat pork after getting his gallbladder out, he became violently allergic to it. He really missed bacon.

That is tragic.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

The inability to tolerate fatty and/or acidic foods is common after having the gallbladder removed. My sister has to be careful with fats and tomatoes, though she can now drink coffee again.

I'm sorry, sj. Hopefully it's temporary.

Because books.

It might not be the coffee as much as the dairy, sj. My dad has had horrible problems with dairy since he had the gallbladder out.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Steph, a pharma question if you have a second. I'm not supposed to take dairy with Cefdnir (and presumably other antibiotics). Are they talking about huge calcium supplements, or do I need to wait if I had cheese on my eggs an hour ago?

And I assume the problem is interfering with absorption, not sudden dairy poisoning or whatever?

It's kind of moot anyway, because magnesium is also contraindicated, and my new migraine supplement has that. I will not be able to manage the antibiotic 2x a day and the migraine stuff 3x a day.

Dana good luck, that sounds like a pain! Magnesium supplements made me itch like crazy.
