My surgeon said sleevers,at 6 weeks post op can take almost any over the counter cold meds . Just have to be careful with pills. Make sure u cut anything big into small pieces....try to use liquid remedies first...such as theraflu...alka selter...as these can be counted toward ur daily liquid goal as well!!

I have had the crud since Wednesday, and have been taking over the counter flu and cold medication, but if you are unsure talk to your team. there's no information about how far out from surgery you are or anything.

the biggest problem for me has been staying hydrated. a couple of times I have been afraid I might need IV fluids, but I managed to chug down enough to keep me going. the hubs has been keeping a close watch on me.

I hate missing work for not fun things BOO. Hope you feel better right quick.

I'm 6 days out and am flirting with a cold - hurts so much to cough. Luckily it's mostly stayed away, but I'm not doing my usual battle of Vitamin c overdose, chicken noodle Soup, mucinex. Hope we all feel better soon!
