Question.. What do you ladies take now post op for your period? I used to take Motrin for cramps And don't k ow what else to take now after? Tylenol does nothing.. Is there anything else? Can I have midol? Not sure what's in it I haven't looked.. Thanks in advance for feedback

i take the cvs/walmart brand of tylenol........i miss my motrin too

i told my dr i have severe pain and he said not to do midol or pamprin or motrin...so i dont although hot warm baths feel good.

well I have to say that at this point in my band journey I get so tight its crazy. My back hurts so bad I can not stand up for very long. best thing that helps me is liquids per my nurse and cvs brand tylenol arthitis strength. I really notice a difference when I take it. those who know me know I hate being on liquids!!

I just had this issue myself. I took regular Midol that contains acetaminophin and caffiene. They also have a new version made with naproxen sodium (the stuff that Aleve is made from).

Stay away from anything that contains ibuprofin because of the risk of ulceration.

Can I have aleve now? I know I couldn't before surgery but what about now? I need to call my dr tomorrow and ask but that doesn't help me now while I'm all cramped up! Sigh

No aleve! It's an NSAID .... Sorry...

Sorry i should have clarified..i was just saying that they have the aleve version so that you make sure you read the label and get the right one.
