i believe we are not supposed to take er meds..but the best thing to do is call your surgeon's office and ask to speak to his nurse...

Topic: RE: Can we take ER Meds?
I was told (not by my doctor but by members of a support group) that extended release or timed release meds will go through our systems too fast to work properly. We will get some of the med but it will pass through before the entire extended release had a chance to release. I've not had to take anything like this though so I haven't asked my surgeon about it, this is just info from a support group.

It's so nice to hear from so many of you. My laptop died so my internet time is limited due to sharing a desktop computer with my son. I'm getting a new laptop (just waiting for it to ship whoohoo) so I can be more active again soon.
I'm incredibly happy with my progress! I'm wearing a size 12 on the bottom, 14 or 16 on top (darn boobs!). I've lost 145 lbs, going from 333 to 188 and I'm still losing which I'm very happy about. I feel so much better, I'm just in love with life now! I was always a happy person but was in pain often so now I'm even happier!
I want to have a TT but I'm waiting until I stop losing weight. I'm struggling with the decision about a boob lift with a reduction. I wear an G or H cup depending on the bra but I'm so broad across the shoulders I really don't look like I'm that big. I guess I'll do the TT first and then think about the boobs. I'm not getting anything else done. My legs aren't bad at all and I can live with my bat wings..... Flying Squirrels Unite! hehehe
I still do my protein drinks and vitamins but I must admit I've slacked a bit on that this summer. Seems like we're always running somewhere.

Topic: RE: Soda aka Pop????
Jenni, my surgeon was fearful it could stretch my pouch so I have only taken a sip of it twice. Though, honestly some days I just crave a coke or a 7-up when I am ill. Comfort drinks I guess. If it doesn't hurt your tummy and you only do diet drinks without fizz, how can it hurt? It is extra liquids. By the way, that is a new pic of you isn't it? You look so great.
Has it snowed up there yet in the UP?. I figure late August you probably already have to use your second story door by now! tee hee - just kidding. Take care sweetie, Kim M.
