Need help!

Hi, I want an official document of some sort regarding NSAIDs and why we should not take them. I am dealing with "ignorant" professionals who don't understand this. Who can I go to? My surgeon will not respond. Paula

Paula, Not sure if this will help but this is a copy of my MCV handbook. MCV is located in Richmond. If you go a little less than 1/3 of the way down it talks about NSAIDS. This is not an official document but it is the handbook that we all get prior to surgery. Good luck! Lisa http://smallscar.com/Obesity_Surgery/Gastric_Bypass_Book/gastric_bypass_book.html

Thank you! Great information! Paula

Here is an article for US Pharmacist magazine. http://www.uspharmacist.com/index.asp?show=article&page=8_1438.htm Search on NSAIDS and you'll find a reference. There are also 3 footnoted articles that go with their statement on no NSAIDS. Kathy

Thank you. I printed it out and will use it when needed. Thank you! Paula
