Can I use my Shoulder Sleeper Pillow on Both arms?

What Can I Do If My Glucose Levels Are Elevated After Surgery?
As mentioned, diet, including order of food is important. Ideally, elevations are prevented.
However, if your levels are elevated after eating there are some “hacks” you can use as well:
1) Drink lots of water
2) Go for a walk or exercise within 1 hour of eating
If you have consistently elevated levels despite eating well and exercising, you may have undiagnosed diabetes or “pre-diabetes” and should consider discussing with your primary care physician.
How should I use OptiFuel before and after surgery?
Mix one packet of OptiFuel with 12-16 oz of water, milk, or non-dairy milk, and shake for 30 seconds until dissolved. Start 1-2 weeks before surgery to prepare your body and continue for 2-3 weeks after surgery or up to 6 months for optimal recovery.
What is OptiCharge and when should I take it?
OptiCharge is a complex carbohydrate drink that helps reduce the biochemical stress of surgery. Simply drink one packet the night before surgery, just before going to bed, to prepare your body for the procedure.
