I had surgery on the 15th of April 2013 and for the past few weeks I have been so sick to my stomach. I put a few calls in to the surgeons office and have yet to hear back. I hate this.

thank you , the more information i have i love !!!

i am crying right now that i am so happy. now i hope to get some sleep and begin anew in the morning, thank you so much again.

the two of you just lifted such a burden off of me. thank you so much. did you have any problems with swallowing it at all?

Thank you Carrie, I am so happy to see that someone else takes it, I was afraid of it getting stuck but thinking about it, the size of my esophagus has not changed at all. what mg do you take? i take 150 once a day.

HI everyone, I had surgery on Monday the 15th, with a hiatal hernia repair. I had to stay in the hospital for a few extra days due to my potassium being very low. I did not have much pain and I have done everything I have been told. When I came home on Thursday I was fine, but since Friday I can not stop crying and i have bouts of such sadness. They told me prior to surgery that I would be able to take my Effexor ER capsule after and then decided to give me some other form of it 2x's a day. I KNOW this is what is screwing up my head. I can not do this up and down roller coaster and it is not due to wanting to eat or lack of fluids. Can anyone tell me if they were able to take Effexor ER after surgery, I have been reading some people open up the capsule and put it with applesauce or yogurt. I think I will do this tomorrow but I will be calling the Doctor first. Please any help you can give me or shine some light into my severe crying spells would be such a help.

Hi everyone, new to the group here. Scheduled for sleeving on Monday the 15th and Dr Boutt at St Joseph' Hospital in Port Huron will be performing it. Scared and excited all together !!! :ph34r:

Prayers for you I hope you have a fast and painless as possible recovery !!!
