Hi Judy,

I am sorry to hear of your situation ...It must be hard enough having endo...than having to take care of your little one aswell... especially just after having surgery. I do have one suggestion and that is ...please take 2 pain meds every 4 to 6 hours as prescribed.No you can not take 1 tablet every 2 hours ..It just doesn't work like that... sorry to say.Your nausea maybe caused from what you are doing with your pain meds but there are other causes..like your endo or even the pain.Please call your doctor and discuss your pain meds with him/her....I think you need to hear it from the person who prescribed them for you .I wish you all the best and hope you recover quickly from your surgery.I am also worse after surgery ...so I understand your pain and suffering and its certainly no picnic.Good Luck. Best Wishes,

Belle.
