All i take is Flexural, Tylenol, and my narcs when I'm in bad pain. My Ra has me on 20 mg of Flexural at night and two halves during the day when needed.

I thought nuerontin was for neuropathy?

They use it for fibro also.

Cymbalta! I love it and it really helps! I have been on it for about 2 years and it is safe with rny I'm 1 week out and I wouldn't live without it.

What mg are you on? I am on 60 but the capsules are kinda big for me. I get samples from my pcp & last time that had to give me 30s. They were much smaller & worked great. I had been taking the 60s at night so I didn't have so much pain in the am but I have now been able to split the 30s to am & pm. What a huge difference in the fibro pain!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
