Recommended Posts

I cannot take another dose of my liquid Hydracodone...yuck!!! I almost through up last night and I don't need a lot of pain meds. I just have a slight headache tonight and wanted to take something light for it. I have coated small round pills, will I be fine taking these?

My pain medicine was actually given to me in a pill form. I was given IV pain meds when in the hospital day 1 and 2, but when I was at home, I was prescribed norco in a pill form, as well as zofran. I had no issue with it, besides the nausea that came from swallowing Enough Water to wash the pill down. Try plugging your nose when you take your pain medicine, keep your nose plugged after you swallow, then immediately suck on a Popsicle.

My doctor recommended children's liquid Tylenol for headaches.

. I used children's liquid tylenol- the pharmacist just said do 5 ml for adults of it and it tasted good!

I was taking pills on day two, before I left the hospital. Didn't bother me at all.

The drug stores all have liquid adult tylenol. Get that. It will go down super easy and you wont risk getting a tummy ache from the pills.< /p>

My doctor said if it was the same size or smaller than an M&M it was OK to take. My pain meds were pills I had to break in half and take both.

My doctor had me taking pills on day 2 when I was in hospital. Pain pills. and potassium pills. They were huge. No problems and I never vomited. Did not hurt.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
