I'm curious to know, how do you take existing meds after surgery? I take metformin, and something for restless leg syndrome as ell as anti depressant, non I would want to chew or pre-desolve.

It's not a problem. I have my anti-acids and several allergy meds that I take every day. I've also been taking Advil for a bruised rib. They gave me pills to swallow IN the hospital. It was a little harder at 1 day post-op but doable.

Than you for responding, I've been worried about having leg issues and post op issues. You've set my mind at ease
