8 days post-op and surrounded by sick kids


Recommended Posts

I've been up with my two young children all night long- one has bronchitis and the other seems to be over the bronchitis but is now throwing up every thirty minutes since midnight. Their dad is on a business trip so I am tending to them on my own and I'm terrified I'm going to get one or both of these illnesses. I can't imagine coughing will feel good, but it's the throwing up that could make my band slip, right? I've left a message at the OCC already but would love some input. Should I down some gravol just in case? I am only 8 days opst-op. What next???

Sabrina,

I would call your primary care doctor and see if he/she would prescribe Phenegren or Zofran... it is an anti-nausea medication that works wonders. Your meds DO NOT have to be in liquid form during your 21 day post-op... I verified this with Dr. Miranda. Take capsules normally and break tablets into two or three pieces.
