I am Day 4 post op and I am really really struggling! I was on the morphine clicker when I was in hospital and felt fine, but have been in such huge amounts of pain since that I am beginning to lose it! My doctor prescribed me Capadex which are HUGE capsules that get stuck and hurt like hell, and last night I threw them up which hurt heaps too. I have tried emptying the capsules and putting them in all sorts of things; ice cream yoghurt etc but they taste so bad I am gagging before I even swallow. My mum got me some soluble Panadeine but its not very strong and isnt helping. Plus I have to swallow the nexium and my antidepressant - It just seems like I am swallowing pills every few hours....OWW! I also have these weird hiccuppy thing which are excruciating, really really bad. I just dont know what to do now, Im out of options and in sooo much pain...please help me.

Swallowing pills 4 days out Is crazy I couldn't even swallow Water. Im only 11 days out so I remember those first couple of days very well. My Dr gave me liquid Tylenol Codene. It helped relax me me NOT drug me but relax my stomach muscles and help me get some liquids down.

Hang in there Call your Dr.
