You are so post to crush everything or get liquid if possible. Do not swallow until 1 month my surgeon said

HW 375 SW 337 CW 318.6 SURGERY DATE 7/31/13

My surgeon said not to swallow if bigger than standard pencil eraser. This hydrocortisone pills were enormous so I went to target and got junior chewable Tylenol. No added sugar, tastes like a bubblegum and I feel okay... Unfortunately it doesn't kick me out, but I have my old pal ambien for that Surprisingly I was in serious pain only the day when I went home, since then I'm on tylenol. Issues with Water intake are still serious, my doc called and reminded me to drink as much as I can... Well, I could do 25oz yesterday and about 30 today... Protein intake sucks because it is another liquid.... I tried Isopure water protein and it tastes like a Poo. Capital P poo... Ugh... I really wish I could have tuna salad on cracker ;(

Yes, you can. Your office can call the pharmacy with prescription or you can get liquid or chewable children Tylenol. It works for me. I've been told that there is a place far far away, where I can buy chewable Tylenol for adults, but I haven't found it yet. :):)

I've been thinking about you! I'm sorry to hear that but I'm glad you were still able to have your surgery! Take it slow. Don't push yourself to hard so you can heal properly. Keep us posted!

Thank you so much for thinking about me. I am taking it slow for sure! Ive got 66staples so I have to.

Welli stayed in the hospital a week n came home tues. I then started my 2nd stage of food which is, fudge cycles ,puddings, and any kind of creamed Soup. (tomatoe,chicken mushroom). So i'm good with that. Today I got up n ate pudding for Breakfast n 1/2 can soup for supper, then a fudge cycle for snack tonight. I've felt satisfied..

So everything is going good, n will bee better wen my belly heals. My family just don't do things around the house like I do. Lol

Hope all my other surgery buddies are doing great. God bless.

What kind of Protein shots did you get? Idk if I told you my Mom had the same surgery you did in 1992 and she's still doing great! Her Dr. Wants to post her before and after in his office. I'm still trying to convenience her. The scar doesn't look to bad either. I'm so glad you are doing good!
