GEAUX SAINTS 143 Posted February 7, 2015 I'm only 3 days out & I started taking mine yesterday. BTW, I take 13 pills a day! Just take it slow and wait a while between pills! Good luck to you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LSF 264 Posted February 7, 2015 Good to know. Last night my arms started to break out in itchy hives. I wanted to take some Benydryl. I just dissolved some in flavored water and took it that way Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JamieLogical 8,710 Posted February 7, 2015 I was allowed to continue taking my birth control pill right through surgery (it's tiny). I was also prescribed an anti-nausea pill that I took daily immediately after surgery. I was allowed to start taking my supplements (all were pills/capsules/gel caps) 7 days post-op.
