cat whisperer 127 Posted May 31, 2013 I was told that it is ok to take an Advil as long as it isn't very often... I guess it depends on the doctor... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hockeymother 178 Posted May 31, 2013 I took an Aleve before bed and it was heaven. And no problems. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stept04 465 Posted May 31, 2013 They say that taking it could cause an ulcer in the pouch and could then erode the band, at least that what I read. I think it would take more than one time though. But hey I'm not a doctor. ~~~Stephanie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lildevil 0 Posted May 31, 2013 I pulled a muscle in my neck and would love to take an Advil. I'm too weeks post op' date=' I should be ok right ?[/quote'] I just took a muscle relaxer. My doctor and and lady from Anastasia said not to take after midnight the night before surgery. I hadn't been taking them as I lost a lot of weight before surgery but felt like I needed one today. Surgery was 48 hours ago. I feel pretty good. But that's my doctor so I'm just putting it out there. Nothing I plan to use on a regular basis again. Hope you feel better.
