I don't know, but CammyC recommends that for gas. Read the instructions on the package and see what it says about drug interactions. I don't want to advise you with something that I don't have the credentials for, ie., medical care.

Just wondering if at 2 weeks out can i swallow the whole tablet or if i have to crush it?

Hi Heather,

I take Trazodone every night. I’m 16 days post op and I finally started swallowing the entire 100 mg tab. Before that I was just crunching them between my teeth just one so they broke up into like 3 pieces. It doesn’t taste bad bc I would barely bite on it. Just enough to get it to break up.

Hi Whitney, oh those saved me! I was in so much pain from the gas. It was the worst pain I’ve ever experienced and I’ve had my boobs and my nose operated on. I was watching on those YouTube girls and she recommended charco Tabs for the gas pain after surgery....it’s the only thing that worked for me. The Percocet did nothing for it.

i didn’t get any until day 2 but if I had known before I would have stocked up for day 1. Days 1-3 were pretty miserable. I hope you feel better soon.

      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.
