Crushed Pills - How Long?
My doc was 4 weeks. I could swallow anything the size of an m&m or smaller. It scared me, but it didn't hurt. I mixed the urisidiol in yogurt or applesauce- that was some bitter stuff. Now (7 weeks out) no problem with large sized capsules or supplements.

I go in for my 1 week post-op appointment on Tuesday and will ask the doctor.
It's been 8 days for me and I feel better with each passing day.
I really dislike crushing the pills, physically I feel like I could swallow them no problem, but they must have a good reason for not wanting me to?
I wore pants today that havnt fit me in 2 years and they were sliding off my ass, lol, I had to hold them up :)

Show strangers kindess....cause they may become friends 
It amazes me the giant variation in pre-op & post-op guidelines between surgeons. My surgeon requires us to be on a liquid diet for 2 wks before surgery for the liver reduction. I can only have protein shakes, water, G2, broth, SF jello, SF popsicles. I'm on day 10! getting sleeved 2/16, looks like a day after you. I'm not sure how they will know if your liver has shrunk enough, my understanding is that it just helps it be up out of the way better & less likely to get knicked or be in the way of the dr's instruments. I've also heard folks on here who don't even have to do a pre-op diet, so I would guess you'll be fine. Best wishes!
