as i said, my comments were more for folks reading this who might be unaware of the effects of anti-inflammatories on post-op healing.
and i also agreed that everything should be discussed with one's medical team.
no offense intended.

i actually have to take aspirin as a blood thinner because of a blood clotting disease. i stopped the week before surgery and was told to start again the day after. so yes it depends on each persons medical history.
-
yes, but regardless of your allergy to tylenol, advil is still a blood thinner, and not something to be taken right after surgery. i say this more for folks who have yet to undergo their surgeries.
but yes, everything should be discussed with one's GP.

thanks for the concern but its implied you should consult your doctor. I have allergies to tylenol so by the time I was on advil I was fine. Not everyone has the same medical history and issues.
-
advil is bad! it [and other ibuprofen] thins your blood; your surgeon should have instructed you to avoid advil and aspirin in the weeks before and after surgery.
if you don't like the prescription meds, extra strength tylenol is a good alternative.

Friend of KadeClark here and I just wanted to say, kudos to you for just being you.
Big hugs!
CONGRATS ELLIOT! I pretty much look the same as you right now! I had the double incision top surgery with Dr. Charles Garramone in FL on the 20th....so I still have my drains in and I have a big ace bandage wrapped all the way around my chest (he doesnt use the surgical binders). Im sooo happy, and my guess is that youre feeling the same way! I get the bandages off and the drains out tomorrow and I cant wait cuz this bandage is so itchy!!! When do you get your drains and binder off?

congrats on your surgery! i have to keep my drains in for a week and a day minimum - then if i'm not draining anymore i get to take them out. i have to keep the binder on for 3 weeks though to keep the swelling down. good luck with gettin your drains out!
