    Back pain

    I know it's frustrating trying to pin point what it is after surgery. I remember my body hurting all over during the rapid weight loss period. It seems my muscles were trying to adjust along with the weight distribution. I would still call your surgeon just so they can make an assessment. I just worry for people about their water intake because I still have problems getting my fluids in and my kidneys paid the price. Definitely keep up with fluids

    Back pain

    It could be a lot of different things. For now I would suggest drinking lots of water and contact your surgeon. Have you ever had back problems or kidney stones?

    The evolution of profile pictures

    My avi hasn't changed for a long long while but I sure have, I'm still not that confident with myself so I hide I guess some things don't change, I thought I might lose some of this shyness with the weight loss but I still feel blah

    Urgent care

    Your almost three months out , you don't have a leak or internal bleeding. Just stay calm, they will figure it out. Just breathe And get someone up there with you so they will give you pain meds

    Urgent care

    They will check your blood work to make sure your levels are ok... Leg cramps can be caused from low potassium , they will be able to see all your levels They should also get you a ct scan to check your gallbladder and kidneys and bowels Your pretty far out for a leak so I think it's something else

    Urgent care

    They will most likely get your pain under control then give you a ct scan and check your gallbladder, kidneys, and make sure you don't have a bowel blockage. I'm sorry your hurting

    Fyre, what's going on? Did I miss a post? What happened? You can take anything but not NSAIDs
  11. It's hard to get any doctor to see you after another dr has operated on you. I don't see it being just a Mexico surgeon thing. I wouldn't let her worry you. Write down everything pros and cons and make the best decision for you.

    Welcome

    I constantly wet my mouth while working out. Being on a high Protein low carb diet has made my mouth dry dry dry and when it gets bad while working out I feel nauseated. I'm actually adding more carbs lately like more veggies and salads. It's helped a lot with the dry mouth.

    Welcome

    Laura , I used to have a friend that imagined wild dogs chasing her when we were on the steppers. My legs would be burning so bad and she was like don't stop the dogs are coming lol I stopped anyways lol I am always afraid now of wild dogs chasing me and I can't out run them. Hehe I would get off that machine and my legs felt like wet noodles. As for hydration, I still struggle but I can drink more at one time now. I just need to carry water with me like I did in the beginning.

    Very nice!! Way to go
  19. Just be aware that your abdomen will be swollen for quite a while as well. The first six weeks stay off the scale and wear comfy clothes. Your body is recovering from a major trauma. You will do great Don't cause any extra worry for yourself
  20. This is just a little bit of what I've experienced with the sleeve. I've been to three er departments And spent 7 days in the hospital and two surgeries and not one single medical person I met knew what a sleeve gastrectomy was ... They either called me a bypass patient or a band patient... It was so frustrating. Sorry I know that wasn't your question. But just thought I would share my experience.
