lilac lass 34 Posted December 19, 2012 I was sleeved 12/6. I am doing well with most things. I can usually get liquids down pretty well. I am not eating anything except my Protein shakes. My problem is with taking pills. In the morning and at night, I have several medications I have to take. I break them up and take them. After a sip of crystal light, my throat/sleeve make this weird noise, it is almost like a squeaky door hinge. The pill isn't stuck in my throat. I am starting to dread morning and evening and taking all my meds. In the afternoon, I have other meds but not as many and there isn't a problem. So what are your tips or what am I doing wrong?

Susie in Lima 320 Posted December 19, 2012 Hey, my husband bought me a pill crusher. It helped me be able to get down the pills I needed to until I was able to swallow them Now I am able to swallow them without any problem, even a large Calcium pill. Hope it feels better soon!

HELLO ITS ME CAMI 27 Posted December 19, 2012 in the hospital my nurse would crush my pill and add a sip of warm Water to it. Then I could drink it down without any problem. At home I'm pretty much doing the same thing so far so good. Best to you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
