I would call your Dr. or email them just to make sure. I am sure taking something won't hurt.

Hope you feel better!

just make sure to avoid ANYTHING with asprin or Ibuprofen... nyquil and dayquil helped immensely when I caught a cold a few weeks past my surgery...

What's wrong with ibuprofen? I avoid Asprin because it's a blood thinner, I avoid Tylenol because it causes liver damage. So what does ibuprofen do?

My surgeon says it can cause ulcers in the stomach... and because it has already been compromised... that wouldn't be a good thing... any NSAID medication can cause this...according to my doc... but I am finding that things are different from doctor to doctor...

Never take NSAIDS just Tylenol. I had the flu and they said any cough Syrup without NSAIDs. NSAIDS cause ulcers in stomach and mouth and esophagus. They can cause GERD too. Saline nose spray and nose saline gel for soreness. I use Ayreshire brand nose gel and generic saline spray. I used Robitussin cough syrup with guaifeneson for congestion. The most important thing is STAY HYDRATED even if you don't get your Protein in and rest, rest, rest.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
