I've got an Rx for them. I've suffered for years. Call your doc's office and see what they say. Feel better.

I've had Migraines since I was 5, and have taken Advil or years. Now I can only take liquid Tylenol....no more NSAIDs since surgery. I've found a very little Tylenol works remarkably well, since my surgery...taking care of lower back pain like magic. Fortunately, I've not had a Migraine since my surgery (a significant miracle!), so I don't know how well it will work on one of those. I hope you get some relief!!

I've suffered from Migraines since I was 9 years old. I've tried every over-the-counter medication and the only thing that seems to work for me is Excedrin Migraine. It's acetaminophen 200 mg, aspirin 250 mg, caffeine 65 mg. I just take the aspirin and acetaminophen combination because I get caffeine headaches.

I was told no caffeine and no asprine. Tylenole didn't touch it. I had some lortab left over that has pushed it away a little, but that won't help with future attacks. Mine seem linked to TOM. Thank god not every month though.

Excuse my language but f over ther counter! I am a sufferer and there are several things. Maxalt 10mg sublingual, Imitrex offer a subq self injection or if you want an anti inflam ibrofen type try Toradol also available injection. All these require scripts. But aren't oral so should be ok!

I have had Migraines for 20plus years, I am on daily meds to avoid and I have Imitrex for when i do get one, I am able to swallow half of one, because crushing them was a nightmare,both need prescriptions but it was worth getting them, you shouldn't continue to suffer with them.There are a lot of different meds you can take to help. I am at 21 days post op and swallowing it has not caused any problems.Good luck to you.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
