Default yet another question....

OK. I never got cramps before WLS lol! But they are KILLING me. Tylenol is not cutting it. Anyone know if i take Pamprin? I didnt see it on the list of meds we cant take post-op. I wouldnt take midol because it has caffeine listed as an ingredient but can i take spme pamprin?

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

(((Kenya)))

This is one of the few days that TOM has NOT visited me since surgery--I have a seriously messed up cycle and surgery is making it worse. Tylenol never has worked for cramps for me. I'm trying to hold out because I had some monster cramps last week and almost dipped into the meds from the hospital.... eek! I'm going to the G-man later this month and am going to talk things over with him. I'll ask if there's something prescribable that won't kill my stomach or knock me out and I'll let you guys know.

I always used advil pre-op, the only thing that worked for me. I hope tylenol does the trick....... We can't use any extended release either since the meds get absorbed in our small intestine so much quicker. Bummer
