I was trying to take my medicines. I take Synthroid for my hypothyroid, a blood pressure pill and a Zyrtec. I have severe allergies so the Zyrtec is a must.

Anyway my discharge notes say to split them all in half and take a half at a time. Well I got the first 2 halves down with 2 separate drinks then I got a third half down with another drink then when the fourth half went down I suddenly got hot. I felt really really sick to my stomach and my mouth started watering really badly.

I sat down for a while and I feel a little better now but I still need to take my blood pressure medicine and I'm afraid to drink anything else right now.

day 2 post op is when I was having issues with vomiting too. The only thing I can think of with your pills is to take a few and then wait 30 minutes and take the rest.

Can the Zyrtec be switched to PM's since it is a 24 hour pill? I do think you probably drank too much Water all at once. I agree, wait it out. I have the same problem several times a week.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
