I was told never to take NSAIDS again also. This was scary because I get Migraines quite often, and Ibuprophen was the only thing that would help. The first Migraine I had post surgery I tried liquid Goody's. The powder version has NSAIDS, but the liquid version was just acetaminophen. I don't know why, it may be because it was liquid, but almost instantly my pain faded. This never happens with any meds when I have a migraine. The next time I had a migraine it was the same thing. I have stocked up on these. They are liquid gold! They taste icky but well worth it.

@anewnewme try calling your doc about it specifically..mine said the same thing but when my hip joint was inflamed they said I can take only with omeprazole (prilosec) and for no more than a few days - so they may change it up if you ask about a specific issue.

doTERRA Essential Oils have been a lifesaver for me! I don't take any medications whatsoever. I just use oils!

My surgeon allows Tylenol only. No NSAIDS ever again.

careful. Liquid goody has aspirin in it which is an NSAID.

The liquid has caffeine which is a diuretic and we don't need to lose any more Water.< /p>

I can't drink extra water. I don't need a Migraine more! This liquid med is the best thing I've tried for getting rid of my horrible Migraines.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
