Ovarian cysts...experience?

If you stick to Tylenol, I think you should be ok. The rest of them inhibit blood clotting, hence the caution.

Yeah, I'm not sure why the script for 600mg Ibuprofen…especially since I tend to bleed like a stuck pig.

For many people (me included), ibuprofen or naproxen tend to provide better pain relief. It also isn't as likely to cause liver problems at high doses, though it's not easy on your kidneys.

(Tylenol does nothing for me.)

Hmmm…it does seem like when I was younger and had REALLY bad endometriosis cramping that I reached for Advil, first. Naproxen is the thing that does nothing for me…and then I'm stuck and can't take anything for hours!

I was given 800mg Motrin - anti-inflammatory. Sometimes it's the swelling that contributes to pain - lessen the swelling, lessen the pain.

That's kind of what I was guessing. Seems like every time I've had surgery I've been given some sort of acetominophen + narcotic and ibuprofen. Same with my broken wrist.
