  1. I was positive also & was treated with 2 wks of antibiotics prior to my surgery. The dr wasn't worried at all about it. I have to go & do a breath test to make sure it's gone (they said to do it a month after the antibiotics)

  6. It's the Children's liquid Tylenol. I just take the adult dose. But it is thick & doesn't taste very good but I'm able to get it down quicker now. As I'm trying to get the sips down I think I NEED to get it down to feel better so I manage. I always chase it with Water or water w/ crystal light & that definetly makes it easier. Hope that helps!!
  7. Hi all! I'm on day 4, 1st couple days were rough for me. But as they say, everyday it seems to get better. Had some gas pains, some shoulder pains. Stopped taking pain meds yesterday, although I am still taking Liqud Tylenol when I need it for my left lower back pain. Anybody else have this?? I feel like if I didn't have the hiatal hernia I would be recouping much better. The dr said he had to cut the muscle & do a stitch inside & that's the reason why I have left sided pulling & pain. I also get a burning sensation inside directly in the middle of my belly. What's that about? It seems to be worse after I go for a walk. Slowly getting fluids in, I was able to finally finish a shake this morning & had some broth for dinner. Hope everyone is doing well & we all are on the mend!
  8. I use Miralax & 2 fiber chews. I was petrified of getting constipated. Both of these seem to work for me.
  9. Nice going!! Congrats! You must feel so good. Gives me hope! Keep up the good work.
