Yeah, I could call my surgeon's office, but that wouldn't be till tomorrow.  I am good.  Just wanted to see what other options besides the day & nyquil, yanno?

Anything more serious than what I have now, or if I don't feel any better by Friday, I am going to see my PCP who is very knowledgeable about RNY (lucky for me!!), and he knows what I can and can't take too.

WOWOWOWOWOW!!!!!   I didn't know that Nyquil could make me dump!!!!  I'm so glad that I read your post! I'm only a month out from my surgery but nyquil is one of my favorite wintery medicines :-)  Thank you I will not be touching the stuff. 

Hope that you feel better!

You will be surprised how many things contain sugar that you wouldn't think to check, you know?  Like Nyquil....

Thanks :)

WOW!  Thanks you guys!

I do dump, and the thought of dumping while feeling like this is not good.

I got the CVS brand (no tylenol is available still from the recall) day and night time cold pills (the kind you need every 4 hours).  Just took a daytime dose and will take the night time ones in a couple of hours.

I can breathe, just drippy; and I don't have a cough (yet).

I knew I could count on you!!

If you have sinus inflammation you can always try a neti pot.  They are suppose to help relieve sinus problems and allergy symptoms.  I know alot of people who swear by them.

Believe it or not the neti pot works WONDERS. At first I was very reluctant (I was not too happy abou****er in my nose) but it truely works. AND no medication is involved just warm water and salt.

Ditto on the netipot. I use a nasal flu****'s saline in a can, so it's not exactly the same as the neti, but it works just as well, is sterile (I'm a germophobe).
