boost? is that like ‘Ensure’ ? I like ensure but I think it is less heathy than other brands... and has a lot of sugar.

The Boost is high in Magnesium and has a good assortment of vitamins. It was 250 calories a bottle and with a couple of eqq whites and 1/4 avocado for breakfast got me back on my feet quicker than I expected. I also took C, B12, D3, Zinc and Spirulina for gut health.

Biggest thing though which helped me was a full prescription evaluation. I went to a new PCP because my old PCP was just prescribing and not really reviewing. He also worked from paper records. My new PCP had my entire medical history, which if you consider the best case where he isn’t violating HIPPAA I much prefer the EHR to paper.

He changed up several of my meds and then asked why I wasn’t dead. My old PCP had me on meds which had bad interactions when combined and no one, not even the pharmacist caught it.

One week later I was back to full-time.
