Suggest Treatment For Headaches And Shoulder Pain
I have shoulder surgery coming up on Wednesday the 24th. I was told not to take a list of certain medications whether over the counter or prescribed due to thinning the blood. I get headaches a lot from my shoulder and am subject to migraines. I ve taken fioricet at least two days out of the seven to help to get rid of my headaches. Will this effect my surgery?

Hi,
As per your history, tablet Floricet will not affect your surgery but you have to stop taking blood thinner tablet. Headache mainly due to migraine for that you can take tablet Propranolol after consultation.
You will get better from shoulder pain after surgery. For migraine try to avoid bright light, high noise.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
