Redheadedone 3 Posted July 30, 2011 Hi, I was sleeved on the 26th. I have started taking the post op antibiotics and the reflux pain and pressure was so bad I have been up all night. I have to take this antibiotic for over a week and don't know how I'm gonna keep taking these pills every 12 hours. I so do not want to sound like a wimp but I have literally been up all night and fly home today. Did anyone else run into this problem and have any suggestions?

emilygrace 5 Posted July 30, 2011 Why are you on antibiotics? Are you on reflux meds? Call your doctor/surgeon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kelgirl68 0 Posted July 30, 2011 I also got my surgery on the 26th and I'm sure hoping I'm not going to regret what I've done down the line. I had a lapband since 2006, it has to be removed because I had to have hernia repair and it wasn't safe to replace the band, hence the sleeve. I have had terrible reflux and feel all around like sh*t!! Hope this all goes away because I really can't undo what's been done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redheadedone 3 Posted August 5, 2011 Hello ladies, the antibiotics were just a normal part o the post op protocol. I did call the surgeon, turns ut I was not supposed to crush the pills, I was to swallow them whole. I did that with some watery yogurt and it went down with no problem. I also picked up and OTC reflux med and I am 100%! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
