Well folks,
What an experience! I am home now and a little sore. I had no problems with the surgery,or after. Very minimal gas pains too!
Thanks to all who have responded to any of my notes, they have all been really helpful!
I am going to lay down now, then out for a small walk!

Hey Chickaboom! Good to see you back. My pharmacy didn't have Adult Liquid Tylenol so I got Children's and took extra. After my surgery, I was given 3 days worth of pain meds. They were tablets that dissolved in water. Maybe you should ask your doc to call in a prescription?

Wait a minute... Codeine is stronger than Tylenol. Looks like they did give you pain med.

Michelle!
Welcome back! The only place I could find the liquid tylenol is Walmart. It's in a red box and it's just called Adult Liquid Tylenol
I asked Rebecca how things went but of course she couldn't say anything! I'm thrilled that you at least feel up to posting!
How was the hospital? I hope you are feeling better and better each step of the way! Just get your rest and take it easy!
Post again when you can! I can't believe it ... you're in Bandlandia!

Tylenol Sore Throat Maximum Strength Adult Liquid is the very same thing. They both contain 1000 mg. acetaminophen. Just a little different packaging. (Can you tell I'm reading this off the bottle?) I guess their marketing figures they'll nab more customers with two bottles of the identical stuff.

You're absolutely right, Jeanie - I can never find the "real" adult liquid Tylenol, and always have to buy the sore throat version. The pharmacists have assured me it is the same thing, and doesn't include anything extra. Go figure... :)

Hi Bailey,
Glad your home and everything went well. I could onlyfind the adult strength liquid tylenol at Wal-Mart. Take it easy and do not over do it. My gas pains kicked in 3 days post op and boy did the kick in! 3 boxes of Gas X and 12 days later I was still blowin' em all out of the room! My boys and hubby loved it though to see their mommy fart like a pro!

State: California | Thanks!
I will have someone make a quick trip to Wal-Mart!
Michelle you crack me up! I have done 3 good, long walks today and I keep hearing a balloon letting out air type sound coming from my stomach, feels really weird!
Darcy, PM me with any questions! I loved the hospital I went through and the surg. was fantastic! She was there the WHOLE time before surgery while I was being asked a zillion questions. She stayed there to make sure all was done right!~
Baileym
PS Debra,
Please take my word for it, no need to worry, just show up and they handle the rest!!!!! she is FABULOUS!!!!:D
