It's in the area where the mouthwash is. I think you can find a pill crusher at cvs walgreens Walmart. I will look for the liquid tylonel Monday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
getnsknyntx 11 Posted September 23, 2012 I found my pill crusher at Walmart over where they have the pill containers that you can put your pills in for every day of the week. Haven't looked for the liquid tylenol yet but it will be a generic brand as tylenol doesn't actually make it anymore Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iPrincess 39 Posted September 23, 2012 I will try to google it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wow that was quick. I probably could of had it already but my first appt was beginning of July and then I was away at a grad class for a week then 2 weeks down the shore. So 2nd surgeon appt was not till August. Got out of the sleep study and cardiac stuff. Just met with the doctors and got signed off of those. Plus could of been a week earlier if my pcp didnt drop the ball and sent her letter in when she said she would. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Barisaxylady 154 Posted September 24, 2012 What are you packing for the hospital? Haven't even given it a thought. Hospital says don't bring cell phones, etc but my hubby is dropping me off and going home with the kids so I have to be able to call people to let them know I'm ok. I was told to bring a small pillow to hold against your stomach while walking and getting up. Plus I'm a baby and I always bring my own pillow to sleep on.

Peggylou 44 Posted September 24, 2012 Crystal light I also had some clear liquid Protein drinks that were not so icky sweet. Carmex was my friend . In my hospital They had these things that were like baby wipes but bigger they called them bath wipes .Ask for some extra you can bring them home and warm them in the microwave they are heavenly. I love freely fresh and clean and the warm felt great Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
