HI ALL,

I have to take a lot of meds (crohn's and hypothiroid) being banded on july 17 i am still walking around with an extreemly swallen/hard stomach and a golf ball the size of beachball stuck in my ches:phanvan . I would love to get any suggestions on how one should take these meds before one could be on mushies? I am hurting from a strained Soup, I can't immagine how i can get applesauce or pudding down.

I have not had this symptom and can't offer any help other than suggesting you call your doc ASAP. Maybe by bumping this thread, some others will reply with more experience. Good luck and I hope you are able to get this resolved quickly!!

I took mine with a protein shake. I had to split one of them. I wait a min then do another. Make sure you check with the pharmacist or doctor if you can split a pill. Due to chemistry some do not allow you to split them.

Check with pharmacist to make sure you can split the pills. I get a pill splitter and chop them quite fine. If I am having trouble swallowing, i have a pill crusher that i use and then just mix them with my protein shake or yogurt.
