5 days Post op, getting concerned
BrownieUNC replied to BrownieUNC's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I want to thank everyone for their answers. I now believe its nothing but late stage bruising. There are no other indications of infection - no redness - no oozing/seepage etc. Guess I just panicked a little. Didnt know to expect it. Thanks for being around on a weekend when I couldnt reach Dr's office. -
after Banding will I be able to take meds
BrownieUNC posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
that are capsules or tablets? I'm a male with BPH (enlarged prostate) and without medication, I would be in the Emergency Room in less than 24 hours. The medication does not exist in liquid or injectable form. I would have to be able to swallow (and keep down) a capsule twice a day, every day, from Day One. Am I wasting my time? -
male only question with those who may have enlarged prostate
BrownieUNC posted a topic in The Guys’ Room
I am taking Terazosin (twice a day in capsule form) in order to be able to urinate freely. I have not been banded yet. Two questions: 1) will I be able to take my meds in capsule form from Day One on? 2) will they be absorbed into my bloodstream as usual? If not, I'll end up in the Emergency Room..... Any input would be appreciated. Thanks -
I'm pessimistic, but I'm going thru the process...... anybody have any luck out there?
