Did the pain meds make you ill? I'm very apprehensive about nausea, as it seems to be common (and extremely unpleasant after jaw surgery).

I had no nausea at all from the surgery or pain meds... but the blended diet on the other hand... he he he
All of my meds were in liquid form... and they all taste pretty nasty... think nyquil.... but i guess it's better than crushed pills

( I was given an antibiotic, hydromorphene for pain, liquid tylenol, and a medicine to reduce swelling)

I also had no nausea, and no puking, but they kept me pumped full of anti-nausea meds in the hospital. I also requested another dose just before leaving the hospital in case I got motion-sick from the car ride home.
