Pain meds

I can’t actually remember when I fully stopped, i stopped and started…I didn’t take them thinking that they weren’t doing anything and I was okay but I was wrong so took them again. I’d just say go by what your body is telling you. If you’re feeling okay then try reducing it but if you find when you reduce it that you’re still in pain then go back to the normal amount

I'm 4 weeks pp on Tuesday and I'm still on paracetamol xx

I stopped taking pain meds roughly day 4, I generally didn't feel the need for them anymore yes I had pain but wasn't to the point I had to stop doing daily tasks or chores tbh but I do have a very high pain tolerance

I stayed using the full dose of dihydracodiene & paras etc until at least a week after the op, then gradually weaned myself off the stronger stuff. I was about 3 weeks pp when I’d stopped everything but then if I was in pain I’d take paras x

I was only given dihydracodeine for 3 days, was discharged 24 hours after section so it included that day. So only had that 2 full days at home and stopped paracetamol and Ibuprofen probably day 10.
