Question?

HAs anyone taken any sort of PMs to help them sleep with a headache or a cold? I'm 5 weeks out and I know I'm to avoid NSAIDs however if I can find a non-NSAID PM, could I take that? Obviously I know the doctors okay is the end all say all I just didn't know if anyone else had experience with this. Thanks! Hope everyone has a spectacular weekend.

Ps. I have lost 3 pounds this week after breaking my stall (:

I have taken advil PM. It settled just fine and gave me a couple nights of blissfull sleep. I am six months out though so I'm not sure if it would be an option at five weeks out.

Hope that helps

((Hugs))

My doc said it was ok for me to take Unisom for sleep. I take the generic version. Good job on your loss.

I use Children's Liquid Tylenol for any pain or headache. It doesn't work as well as an NSAID, but is better than nothing. You might could try melatonin or Valerian root to help with sleep, those are herbal and don't affect the stomach.

I had my 4 week post op on Wednesday and my doc said pulls were ok now and that Tylenol PM would be fine.

I was more excited to hear I could take a laxative pill though. ;0)
