  1. I don't understand it either. I have a hard drinking water because of it feeling heavy. But I can drink, gulp Gatorade down no problem.
  2. I had major itching Nd my doctor said it was normal and there was nothing I could do. I read somewhere to ice it. I had a large ice pack and covered my entire stomach. Helped sooooo much!
  3. I'm not sure but I think if you had a liquid pain med from your surgery, the codeine is a cough suppressant. I have been sick this week with the flu and have been sooooo thankful for it.
  4. I just got back from doctor, diagnosed with flu. Got tamiflu, teriflu, and a cough med. but the thing that is saving me is the leftover pain meds from surgery. Been in bed for 3 days so far. Good luck guys it is miserable!

  8. My glue fell off sometime in the second week. I called my office to see what to do for itching, they were no help. After Internet search I used an ice pack that covered my stomach and this helped a ton. Guess it kind of numbed it. Felt so good!
