Ok so is anyone else having issues with pill sizes now ? I just got back from the dr because I have a sinus infection ( lucky me) I explained to the dr that I recently had sleeve surgery and the meds need to be able to go down so I can't have a huge pill , she said oh no this will be fine .... Then I get to the pharmacy and bam it's huge thank god I had the pharmacist see if I could crush or cut the pill .... Wtf why don't they listen to us ?? Frustrated

Ugh! Totally feel your pain! Huge pills (especially chalky ones) make me gag and sometimes vomit! I flat out refuse anything that isn't tiny, chewable, or liquid. All the best!

Yes! Not just the pull size but Dr and Meds in general. I'm having a problem with my knee, but trying to keep exercising. I went to the orthopedic Dr and he put me on Celebrex. It did not go down well, I kept trying to take it but went in for a follow up with gastric sleeve PA and she freaked. She said Celebrex is so harsh on the stomach. I talk to the pharmacy and they made several suggestion of creams, when I told the orthopedic Dt he said she didn't know just keep taking the Celebrex, I don't go to him anymore but I still have no relief for my knee. I think most Dr do not understand our surgery!
