Hi friends!

I did it! I was banded on Jan 11th and I feel great. Every day I feel better and better.

There's only one small problem.....what can I take for a headache? I've searched high and low for liquid tylenol, but the pharmacy's in my area just don't carry it. They told me I have to take the kid liquid (which I have cauz I have a 6 and 2 yr old ) but the taste is sooo sweet its nauseating. Any suggestions out there?

What about trying tylenol rapid release..those work awesome for me but I'm also pre-banded, but I would think it would help you too

It's weird - DH can't stand the taste of the Rapid Blast (that's the name of the adult strength liquid Tylenol), but I don't mind it. I don't crave it, but it doesn't bother me. The chew tabs - no way. And even the adult strength liquid Tylenol PM makes me cringe.

Oh my GOD, the Rapid Blast things are disgusting! I tried one the night before my surgery because I was starting to get a headache, and I nearly threw up. The actual mint flavor wouldn't be too bad if it wasn't combined with that nasty bitter tylenol flavor. It's like they just combined crushed tylenol with some strong mint flavored stuff, compressed it into a chewable, and called it done. ICK!

And if anyone should be tempted, never EVER open an ibuprofen liquigel and squirt it into your mouth. I wanted to rip my lips off and stomp on them.
