Good morning everyone... had my surgery 09-19, was in a little longer than anticipate to repair a hietal (sp) hernia didnt know I had.

Can not tolerate that liquid Hydrocodone... makes me so nauseated, then the desolvable nausea med even worse. Just about walked all that gas, should pain, out of my system. Today, is going to be the best day yet. Best to you all.
