Marijuana & Sleeve
elicia replied to PiggyPantsPaige's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
i know they tested me for tobacco levels but i told them i smoked so i guess if you didn't say you smoked they wouldn't test -

this is my first ever blog lol not sure how it will come out but hear goes everything .so I'm extreamly frustrated im 3 1/2 months out from my vertical sleeve surgery and my hair is falling out. im not talking a few strands hear and there im talking clumps when i wash it then when i brush it the next batch of clumps start and my tears are endless. its been almost 2 wks of it and i can feel the difference in the thickness of my hair, I'm seeing thinning spots and i feel like total crap about it! when i signed up to get the surgery done that was one of my worst fears, losing my hair. the doctors had told my that with the sleeve it very rear, less of a chance then with the gastric so i was very happy about that. now 3 1/2 months later and I'm worried sick about it! I've bumped my protein up to about 80 grams from my shakes and i do eat a little through out the day. i was taking my vitamins once a day now starting today twice a day, taking the vitamin b12 sub-lingual and the biotin. the nurse keeps assuring me that I WILL NOT GO BALD but in all reality how can all this hair fall out and i not? it so scary my hair is my everything, I've always had long beautiful hair lol so I've been told. on Friday I'm going to go get it cut i figure less weight pulling at it the less it will fall out? i wish i would have taken a picture to attach to this of what I'm talking about if I'm able to go back and do so after my next shower I'm going to. if there is anyone out there that can help me out i would greatly appreciate it!!
