Hi guys, I am back to work after about 2 and 1/2 weeks off. I am really tired right now. Came in at 8:30am EST and now it's almost 2:00pm EST and I am drained. WOW! I wish i had my bed or couch. Do you know if we can swallow Tylenol Tablets ???

I know they make liquid but i think it's for children.

And I refuse to take Motrin or Aspirin.

I also refuse to drink regular coffee or tea.

Any advice from my fellow sleevers?

please and thank you.

this is almost harder than the liquid diet.

I am allowed to take Tylenol. I got the gel caps because they are easier to swallow.

ok cool. thank you Deecc26

Are you drinking enough water? I'm 4 weeks post op and still struggling with drinking enough water. Hope you feel better.

yes i drink plenty of water. i think it's just me getting back into the swing of things with work. ugh thanks though

I'm 19 days out and going back to work Monday. I am afraid it will drain me also.

I agree drink Water. I struggle with this also. Never seems like I can get enough.

Yes you can take children's Tylenol. I spoke to the pharmacist and he told showed me the amount to take for adults.

4 to 6 teaspoons every 4 to 6 hours. Double check with your Pharmacist before you take, just in case I got this wrong.

I went back after 1 week. It was a rough road but I made it.

I'm only taking off a week from work. My HR person said I can only take unpaid leave. I hope I will not be so tired!

My HR person said that because my regular dr did not advise surgery, then I don't have medical consent. I guess I never should have told her I'm going to Mexico. I am pre diabetic and have a BMI of 39. Sorry that I'm off topic. But I hope I can handle work 9 days after surgery!
