fibromyalgia

Any one with FMS know if they will allow you to take meds for pain during the liquid diet before surgey if need be? Also did any one have surgery and have to deal with an episode (this is what I call it) where it made things seem much worse? if so how did youdeal with it?

I was allowed to have my medications up to the surgery. In my situation, the fibromyalgia has been alleviated since going on the sugar free diet. My pain level is almost nothing! If I do need something, tramadol is okayed by my physician, as is tylenol with codeine. I am very pleased with the results, so far.

Ive had Fibro, ( which is now called a disease) for years. I had liquid percocet post op. I actually had no restrictions for pain meds tho, as long as I could swallow it... but I am banded I didnt have the bypass. I had my surgery in august 05 and I dont recall having a flare up at that particular time. I have had alot this year tho. be sure you ask you dr ahead of time to prescribe whatever you normally take for in a liquid form b4 surgery so your covered.
