Hello all.  I need some assistance again.  I have got the itchies under control..thanks for everyone's suggestions! Now... since I am so new post op, I don't exactly know what medications we can and can't take.  I haven't gotten a call back from Dr. so can someone let me know.   I was just too busy for the past 2 days and I think my body is reacting to it.  I feel really good that I forget that I only had surgery 3 weeks ago.  I am tirrreeeed bigtime today!   What about those sore throat or theraflu strips that you just put on your tongue?   I just feel like crap tonight.   Thanks ya'll Connie

Hey Connie, Sorry your not feeling good. Did you leave a message for Tammy? She told me if I needed her to leave a message and she returns them all at the end of the day. Have you heard back yet?

hey kiddo!  ok - as I recall, Dr. Jon has us take tylenol stuff.  I would also recommend zicam nasal swabs (since the med doesn't get anywhere near your digestive system).  Warm (or hot) lemon tea (decaf, of course) is good too.  Be careful not to take anything that has aspirin or ibuprofen or naproxen sodium. (as I understand it, they will mess up your delicate disgestive system.)

I did have some tea last night before bed.  It was very soothing to my sore throat.  But I got those strips also.  So the combo of both of them seemed to  have worked some.  I feel much better today.  My body is just telling me to slow down.  Its very hard to do that this time of year too!   Thanks for your suggestion.  I forgot about having tea.  decaf of course.  I think I might get some zicam too...because I need to knock this out in time for Christmas.   Thanks a Lot!!

GET SOME REST!!  You cannot get sick before Friday Connie!!!  LOL   I use the strips that melt on your tongue and they seem to work fine for me.  Dr. K.  just does not want me taking anything with Ibuprofen in it... other than that, I can take most anything.  If you are crushing pills, Benedryl can be crushed.  It will help your sinuses and give you some rest.  :)   Get well soon girl!  We have some shopping to do!!!!

The first thing that came to mind when I read your post was when I was having a weight loss I would feel so tired and run down.  I don't have that anymore, but atfirst it was bad. Good Luck.  Stayaway from the bad stuff, I can vouch for that too.  Ulcers are horrible.
