Guest guest Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 Why did you take no pain meds after surgery? It sounds like you were only hospitalized for one day, is that so? It sounds awefully short. AND, what is your name. I haven't been able to catch it. -Jess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 I don't think you are referring to me, but I did not take any pain meds after surgery - at all and I was released the next day after the follow up barium swallow was good and I could show the nurses that I could tolerate a full liquid diet! The only rx I am taking now is liquid zantac 150 mg 2 x day for 2 weeks. I was given liquid codiene - but I haven't used it . Its been 1 week and I feel like I am getting back to normal - actually I haven't felt this good in 6 months. > Why did you take no pain meds after surgery? > > It sounds like you were only hospitalized for one day, is that so?

Guest guest Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 It was you I was asking Thanx for the response. You must be very healthy to begin with, or perhaps you have a very high pain threshold? My boyfriend seems to think that I do, so we'll see.

Guest guest Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 My name is Rob. Yes, I am fairly healthy other than the achalasia - I have always worked out regularly and was in good shape - thats why the 20 lbs I lost prior to surgery scared me! Anyway, I did have jaw surgery to correct my bite 8 months ago and compared to that the lap procedure was easy. With the jaw surgery I took 2 weeks off work and with this only 1 week! > It was you I was asking > Thanx for the response.
