My surgeon said to go ahead and stop taking the pecid yesterday. I was only taking 1 pill at night. Anyway, I didn't take one last night and my stomach feels really weird...I sort of feel sick to my stomach. How did you feel once you stopped pepcid (or something like it)? Just wondering ...thanks for your help.

have you been taking it every day since your surgery? I was getting it in my IV in the hospital, but I wasn't told to take it at home. When I felt I needed it, I took it, and I did feel more settled in my stomach, but in general I've sorta had an icky feeling. Maybe I should be taking it more regularly. Hmmm..... Yesterday when I saw my doc, I asked if it was okay to take pepcid or tums if I had an icky feeling stomach, and he said yes. But he said if I start having acid reflux symptoms that are more severe I have to tell him, because some people need to go on a regular prescription. (I guess like nexium or something similar) Hmmm... Good luck. Maybe give it a few days before you call him?

Yes I've been taking them since the day of my surgery. At my post op he said to stop taking them at 6 weeks. I wonder why I just can't keep taking them if they make me feel better...I will be seen again on the 21st. But if my tummy still has this yucky feeling I may start them up again.

Thanks!!!
