Are you still on any pain meds? Glad you are feeling well. Now the fun begins as you watch the scale drop numbers :)

Why would your collar bone be sore?

I'm going to guess gas or soreness from hernia or indigestion. Going to start taking Pepcid today.

Congrats and good luck!

That's exciting. It wasn't as bad as I thought.

How are you doing on drinking your fluids? I'm using the small measuring cups from the hospital it takes about 3 sips from that over 15 minutes to get it down. Now I have to go get some jello to mis in my prilosec.

I'm trying my hardest. I feel uncomfortable if I drink to fast or to much. I was nervous to take Prilosec it looked to big so im gonna do pepcid.

Glad to hear everyone is okay! I'm a bit panicked - I get sleeved 6/14. So you all are able to swallow pills? I have two meds I have to take and that's one of the things I'm apprehensive about - swallowing a pill on post-op day 2.

No swallowing pills for me, I have to take the capsules apart and the actual pill ones I'm suppose to crush and put in something else like sugar free jello or pudding.

I can't say anything about day 2, but I've been taking small pills since day 4. I think it will really be dependent on he size of the pill. If they are RX pills many of them can be compounded into chewable or crushable by any compounding pharmacy.
