Morning all, I hope you are all off to a fabulous Monday!

Too bad for me- I'm getting a chest cold. This will be my first post-op illness andd it's just in the beginning stages, but I want to be prepared. Post-op illness any different then pre-op? What medications (over the counter) have you taken since surgery to help? So far I'm just feeling achy and post nasal drip into my chest. I turn into a really big baby when I'm sick and I'm just trying to be prepared.

Apologies if this is all in a thread found elsewhere- I honestly don't have the time to look for it right now.

Thanks!

Sorry to hear you're feeling under the weather!! I have used liquid tylenol the couple of times I've needed medicine. I've seen others post that they can take tylenol capsules, but I haven't tried that yet. If you do take cold meds, though, be sure to drink extra water/liquids to stay hydrated. Hope you feel better soon!
