Liquid part of my banding, 4 days out, and a headache

Can I take like childrens tylenol for my headache, I have now had it for the second day. It isn't severe but I do get migraines and I am not wanting this to escelate. Does anyone know if it is okay to take liquid childrens tylenol? I am not taking pain meds, last dose was last night at 11:30pm and it is every four hours but don't feel I need it.

I'm sure liquid Tylenol is fine... you might want to call your Doc and ask. My doc told me to take medications as normal and not worry about if they were liquid or not. I haven't had a problem yet with any of them... and I was banded on Monday. I had a slight headache yesterday, but once I increased my fluid intake it went away.

If you would normally take Tylenol for a headache, then taking the liquid is okay. It doesn't have to be childrens. Tylenol now makes an adult liquid.

I don't know what you take for migraines, but check with your doctor about crushing the pills if you need them. I crush mine and mix them with either honey or chocolate syrup. And since I don't get migraines every day, I don't worry about the calories in the syrup.

If you are in doubt, check with your doctor or pharmacist before crushing pills.

Best of luck to you.

Thanks, I have had way above the required fluids so I know its not that. Horrible weather here, lots of rain and blech. My sinuses are stuffy too so I am sure it is just a weather/sinus thing.
