How long before we can swallow whole pills
jackpell replied to slatter's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have a question... How do you crush your pills. My vitamin b 12 is hard and large. I tryed crushing it in a coffie cup with the end of a butter knife. That didn''t work. Its my largest pill and right now I have no problem with any size pill. I have not yet had my surgery, its on the 11th of Jan. I was just "practiceing." -

My surgery is on the 11th of January... I too am anxious... but so ready to be on the losers bench. So many other people has had this operation and has had positve results we can too! One thing that keeps popping up in another forum is to get up and start walking as soon as you can after surgery. It is supposed to help in releasing the gas. And don't forget to get lots of water in you. Good luck.. see ya on the other side.
