lindydog 4 Posted November 18, 2017 I have a date of Dec. 18th. Excited but very nervous. Can't believe I'm going to do this- yet I've tried so many other things over the past several years. Worried about telling my family members (sisters, etc). because I think they won't want me to do it. Does anyone know if you can take your regular medications the night you are in the hospital? I take daily preventative meds for Migraines. 4 Briar, depressed_bandster, Taylor5 and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I take daily preventative meds for Migraines. When you go for medical clearance the doctor should tell you if you can take it. They told me I can take my cymbalta, Wellbutrin, and Prilosec Karissa 2 Briar and cdealdec reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I take daily preventative meds for Migraines. From what I was told, your regular meds will resume the following morning after your leak test is done. I am unable to take any of my routine meds. o.o. You may want to confirm that with your doctor. Edited November 18, 2017 by GoddessMoon 2 cdealdec and Briar reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
