Any one have any issues with Goody's powder? It's always been my go to for a headache. But, I just took one and vomited it all up. I hope it was because of the Water I used to wash it down. Maybe a bigger swallow than I could handle. After...I feel better besides the headache. I haven't noticed any other issues with medicine. Interested in if any others have had issues with medicines that I should be aware of. Thanks.

For information, I am 4 weeks post op.

Goody's Extra Strength Powder contains aspirin, caffeine, and acetaminophen.

The formulation of "Goody's Extra Strength Headache Powders" is currently 520 mg aspirin, 260 mg acetaminophen and 32.5 mg caffeine.

In my opinion that is too much aspirin for 4 weeks post-op sleeve, plus caffeine can lead to reflux. I would go with liquid Tylenol for headaches.

All that said, I suspect you are correct about the Water causing your issue. I would highly recommend discussing this with your doctor.

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

      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?

      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! 😞
