I am 3 wks post-op/lap rny and came down with a nasty cold 2 days ago.

I have been sneezing like crazy and the most bizarre thing happened during one of these sneezing attacks. I threw out my lower back and had to go to the emergency room. The question I have is they gave me 3 demerol shots into my lower back and gave me 2 prescriptions...one for tylenol w/ codeine and the other for liquid valium. I just took the tylenol and not even 5 minutes later I had horrible nausea. It lasted 45 min. I am too scared now to take the valium but am in tremendous pain. Is liquid valium ok for us to take. I explained the surgery to the ER doc., she was not familiar with it at all but said it was perfectly fine to take the valium. I would appreciate any feedback you all can give me. Thank you. Lori
