PB's and Pills



Recommended Posts

Hi all --

I took some tylenol for a headache tonight and then a minute later had a PB with a little vomiting. (The Water with the Tylenol created the problem here!) So is the Tylenol gone? I'm just afraid to take more because I still have the headache.

I was told not to swallow any pills much larger than a birth control pill. When available to take liquid if not, cut or crush all meds that can be crushed into small pieces. Always check with your pharmacist if you aren't sure. Anything that is time released cannot be cut or crushed.

Don't be afraid to take the liquid tylenol once you get it. Even 2 or 3 tylenol wouldn't hurt you if taken at one time. ut as always follow the instructions on the bottle.

I know the liquid is much easier...but I don't have any fill right now...and it hadn't been a problem before. But... if I'd thrown up the liquid tylenol -- hypothetically -- would it be okay do you think to take another dose?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
