I looked back at the list of meds not considered safe after WLS and

tetracycline is one of those listed.

Yes, you posted the message right. Advil is a no-no, too...it's

an Nsaid, pouch burner, ulcer maker. I don't have the list, but I'm

sure someone else on here does. Wonder if it was ever posted in the

Files...if not, maybe we should do that?
