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?

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.
I get bad cramps and i just use the 8 hour tylnol or tylnol pm when its night time.....
I promise you eventually TOM will get better but the
first ones when your super looseing can be hardest
OH NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I missed it. I didnt even see it on the list. maybe subliminal cuz i wanted to take it so bad but i didnt. thank god. AAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!
YEAH its an ulcer thing im sure.
I know for me i used the 12 hour aleve
pre op but no more.
THANK god after the first six months cramps
have eased up and this is a first time for me
EVER in my life...
but now my TOM is 21 days and thats makeing
me one mooody lady!
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
