Re: ? for Post-Ops about Headaches

[Guest guest]

Dr. R will give your a Rx for Vicodin for moderate to severe post-op pain.

I did not have to take any of it for post-op pain but it has acetominophen

[tylenol] in it so I would infer from that that tylenol is ok. Even at that

I think I would use it sparingly.
