Tylenol use to make a liquid pain reliever but it's been recalled but if you are near a CVS Pharmacy they carry their own brand of this liquid that is in the aspirin isle. I bought some as a "Just in case" measure before my surgery and have actually used it a few times instead of the liquid pain killer they gave me. You may want to call your surgeon just as a precaution first to see if this is anything to get a handle on. My surgeon's motto is "there are no stupid questions". She also gave me her personal cell phone in case I had ANY issues that arose when the office was not open. Good luck on your recovery and journey.

I had that headache just after surgery too. I found that what helped me was drinking a tiny glass of lower sugar apple juice. Within fifteen minutes after that, it was gone until the next morning. I would ask your surgeon too. I found that I felt better once I stopped the pain pills. You may also want to get liquid tylenol. I hear it has been recalled by you can get the generic brand at CVS.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
