Hey Everyone,

I'm about a month out of surgery and I'm not on any medications so I don't remember when I'm allowed to have pills...???  I feel like theres so much to remember.

I have a serious migraine so....HURRY

Thanks!!

 Hi Julia,

I was swallowing my pain medication the day after surgery and didn't have any problems.  If they are tablets I would split them and make sure you take it with plenty of water.  Hope you feel better.

You can have pills anytime as long as they are the size of the tip of your finger.  Otherwise, split or crush them.
