Tylenol causes liver failure if you use it incorrectly or if you're a regular drinker AND habitual Tylenol user. Using it sporadically for minor pain/ fevers doesn't cause liver failure without some other condition also present.

I have taken two Tylenol in my life and drinking is hardly on the menu. The physician said a Tramadol is much better than Tylenol due to liver failure complications.

I hope you feel better soon. I had an awful cold and my mom was about three days behind me.

You might also want to try saline for the congestion. I like Ayr (I think that is how it is spelled). It comes in a mist or a gel.

It depends on how far you are after surgery. I wasn't allowed Tramadol for the first six months. I don't know about now.

If in doubt, always call your surgeon's office.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
