Biotin and pain med



Recommended Posts

What are you guys taking for pain meds, if you have a headache or something that doesn't need a prescription? I tried Children's Tylonel and I could taste the HFCSyrup-gross!!! I also tried crushing tylonel and that was messy and did not taste well with applesause!

Also, finally looking into taking Biotin. I've only seen gel caps. Any suggestions would be appreciated! TIA~!

When I have a headache I have found the best way for me to get it down. I crush the Tylenol and put it in a spoon. I get a sip of sugar free Hawaiian punch tilt my head back open my mouth and put the Tylenol in. I swallow before I ever raise my head back up. I never touch my mouth to the spoon. I barely taste it and then I just continue sipping. It may seem stupid but has really helped me.

My nut says that some people can dump on the liquid tylenol, so I have completely avoided that. I just cut the regular tylenol in half (not the capsules, the hard pills). It is about the same size as my other pills and I haven't had any trouble as long as I cut them in half with a pill cutter.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
