I take a time released capsule, and said I would need to change my R/X . Pills you can crush but time released capsules you can't do anything with. I don't think I can change my R/X. HELP

I take a time release capsule.  The surgeon thinks I should be able to take it without a problem.  He said just don't take all the meds at once.

We will find out Tuesday after I get home from the hospital.

Have you had your surgery yet?

Hi, Good luck on Tuesday I will be thinking about you, and good luck.  My surgery is schedule for Oct. 24th. Get to start on the liquid diet on the 17th , yeah. Thanks for writing to me. I seen  your profile am I right you are a Methodist pastor? I am a  Methodist , and so yes I know being Methodist everything revolves around food, lots of potlucks. We have our work cut out for us. Again I will be thinking about yo on Tuesday.

Hi, Laura:

My surgery is Monday not Tuesday, but thanks for thinking about me.  Yes, I am a United Methodist pastor and have been one for 14 years.  Our church does a monthly Community Dinner.  Different groups (youth, UMM, UMW,  SS) take turns providing the food and the community can come for free.

Last night was the Sept. dinner.  I have not had to go on a liquid diet presurgery.  I ate what they served and know that is the last time I will ever do that.  That is only one of many eating "opportunities" that I will have in the coming month.  I am going to try to eat before and have a snack after those events, and carry water with me to sip on while I visit the folks in the room.  It will be weird, but I guess I will get used to it.

God bless you on Oct. 24th and always.

Blessings,

Jeane

Oh , ok I will say a prayer for you tomorrow. Wow you didn't  have to go on a liquid diet.  What area are you from.  I am guessing your surgery is in the early morning. Good Luck. Laura.

I used to take Adderall XR, which is time release. Since surgery, I've switch to fast acting and although I thought I would have a hard time remembering to take it again, half way through the day, it is actually working out okay. Good Luck!

So is Adderall in pill form and you can cru**** to take.  I don't know if my R/X comes any other way than capsule. And I might not be able to  get it though the band????? I need to find out stuff huh. Thanks for writing back. When was your surgery?  Are you doing good?
