Vomitting?

Thanks amanda 3.0 I'm glad I don't need the full dose of lortab since I'm not in a huge amount of pain. I do need all of carafare, it tastes better and I'll just do 5 ml at a time. I'm just worried I messed up my sleeve puking so quickly!

Almillsips, I just had surgery this morning. I was at a surgical center so I was sent home. i felt nauseated So I got some meds for that. I also have a nausea med patch behind my ear for 3 days. I felt like I was going to regurgitate, but didn't. I wasn't in too much pain from the incisions, but the gas still hurts which I'm actually grateful for at 8 hours post-op. When I got home I took my pain meds, lortab and planned on carafate. I'm allowed 15 ml of lortab. i took it super slow, it tasted so grow. I got down about 9 ml and stopped, I felt nauseas again and had a barf like experience. nothing came up, but my body did the motion and I felt a little better afterwards. I didn't take any more meds at that time. I took 5ml of carafate about an hour ago and 7 ml of lortab just now.

I had no idea I wouldn't be able to hold the entire med dose. I didn't drink Water with it since I can't I guess, even though it tasted gross. I hope I didn't mess my sleeve up already, but I could have "regurgitated-ish" from the nasty taste or nausea. Does/did anyone else have trouble taking entire dose of med at once?

My Dr suggested my Loratab dosage be between 6ml - a max of 10ml. I would think that 15 ml would be a bit much. I have been staying at around 8ml and have been feeling okay with that now. I tried 10ml at the hospital and it made me a bit sick so I tried a little less and that seemed to work better for me. Hope this helps.

I was not in much pain either, but people will advise to take the pain meds so that the pain never comes on. In retrospect, I shouldn't have taken it.

I have some Lortab left over from my surgery, and my PCP gave me a refill with a dosage of 8ml (not 15). This is because from time to time I get bad headaches and the adult liquid tylenol was taken off the market, supposedly due to people taking too much and suffering liver damage.

Since surgery, anything even slightly bad tasting is TORTURE. If you think Lortab is bad, wait until you need some Nyquil (lol). Blecccchhhhh! You can at least mix liquid meds with some juice or follow up with a little warm Water.
