woke up early this morning with fever and sinus headache. 14 hrs later I still have both and have Been taking Tylenol every 4-5 hrs.  NSAID's aren't an option since RNY, so what lease can I take?  Or ask my doc for an Rx?

 

thanks,

Ask your doctor. I get migraines and NSAIDS were a lifesaver so pre-op I got a script for Maxalt Solutabs (migraine med). Maybe you have a sinus infection and need an antibiotic. Feel better!

Thank you. If I still feel this bad tomorrow I'll definatley be calling the doc.  Getting in to see him will be a whole other challenge.

I never had any luck with Tylenol before surgery. However, I was waiting to see my ENT and had a sudden, bad headache and asked the desk for something. They only had Tylenol, of course, but I was desperate. They gave me 2 XS Tylenol with a cup of ICE WATER (just because it was all they had) and that headache went away, FAST!  As a long time migraine sufferer, I was shocked!  Could be a helpful tip to take with ICE WATER??  Worth a shot!
