Unhappy Morning after pill?

Hey all.

Just wondering if anyone here (and maybe the pregnancy forum isn't the place to ask :S) has taken the Plan B pill after GB surgery? I'm two years out and don't take regular birth control because of the emotional side effects, so am very nervous about taking the plan b, but there was a condom malfunction and I'm in the grey zone area of my cycle. Am just worried about the stomach pain/absorption issue, because I know there's alot of hormone in that pill and and we process medicine differently after GB surg (I'm 2 & 1/2 years out, btw).

Anyway, just freaking out of course and would love any feedback possible! Thanks

I don't have a clue, but better safe than sorry. I'd call the huisarts, take the pill and start praying.

i have taken plan b before. i puke and tend to get nausiated and have side effects from everything.
however, i found plan b to be very easy to tolerate. just fyi - it wasn't so bad.

That's so good to know! I took it a few hours ago and other than a hotflash have been okay. Thanks for setting my mind at ease!
