Rene' S 14 Posted April 11, 2019 Hello, Just wondering if anyone has taken or is currently taking an anti inflammatory after surgery? I was on Voltaren for multiple issues and since I have been off it since surgery, I am in so much pain. When I asked my surgeon they did not flat out say no it more like wait awhile and we will see. I was taking it while I had the lap band with no issues. I had a upper GI and a barium swallow for other things and nobody said I had issues due to taking the Voltaren. My weight loss has pretty much stopped/stalled after 7 weeks due to not being able to exercise. Thanks for your thoughts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was prescribed that one awhile back but stuck with the other. Edited April 12, 2019 by Rene' S Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sandra Nuelken 419 Posted April 12, 2019 Voltaren comes in a cream. I used it when I had a lap band as it didn't pass through the stomach. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
