I am so sorry you are in so much pain. The dr. gave me liquid hydrocodone. But I was lucky and only took it about 3 days. except on and off. I hope that you feel better soon.

How does that work if you got your surgery in Mexico? I'm assuming you can't take pain meds across the border and a pharmacy wouldn't fill Rx from Mexico.

If you have a perscription for pain meds you should be able to take them with you.

I know I am bringing mine.

Call your Doctor and ask for liquid pain medicine. I was given liquid Lortab (hydrocodone). I used it once, the day I got home from the hospital. I was also told to purchase Childrens liquid tylenol. Which I did and have not needed to use at all.

      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.
