Keeping Healthy Pre-Op

New here. TAH scheduled 07/30. found out yesterday. were going to try ablation, but I am 47 and this time my bleeding lasted 58 days...I have Lupus and Chronic back pain from an auto accident 6 months ago. Hit by a drunk driver. At least this problem can be solved with surgery, but I am frightened due to my compromised immune system. Any advice? I know I will have to go off my NSAIDS prior to surgery. Thanks for any input and support.

It is not the best tasting- but you get used to it. It killed the sore throat and cut down on the drainage in about 1 and 1/2 days. The vinegar kiils bacteria. When I get home I'll post my experiences at the castle. So far I'm doing great!! Kathy

That's sekanjabin! It was a medieval kool-aid--they mixed it with water. I didn't know it was good for the sinuses
