I never knew how much I used food to stuff my emotions down Im 10 weeks out and very easily aggravated everythig seems to get on my nerves very quickly yes I know count to 10 ... take a walk .... I guess I just needed to vent a little here I feel like such a b***h most of the time I hear myself then feel guilty about being so quick to snap

Before surgery I was taking a fluid pill for excess fluid and to help with high blood pressure my BP is pretty normal now the dr told me not to take them anymore but I notice now I have swelling and excess fluid in my lower legs and feet I am however still on a beta blocker as my pluse is still very high (always has been even before I was over weight) anyone else experience this the surgeon taking you off meds but you are unsure ?
-
That's what I was afarid of taking if I did take my fluid pill becoming dehydrated so I get why my surgeon stopped them I get in about 60oz of fluid but I know that's bare minimum that I need but why am I building up fluid. Right now the only thing I take is toprol xl 50mg I guess I will call tomorrow I don't see a cardiovascular dr anymore my pcp has been managing my bp but I haven't seen him since surgery

I find it so much easier to "talk" on here than in person to someone I get so uncomfortable I've never been good with talking my feelings out to someone else ugh just thinkin about talkin to someone gives me a huge stress ball in my stomach as far as drinkin how do you over come that uncomfortable feeling when sharing in person -
Dehydration and when to go to the hospital
Kammie726 replied to SeriouslyChange's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
They ask for payment but if you explain they will bill you they wont turn you away if you need medical treatment also once your dehydrated its hard to catch up by just sipping get a IV get hydrated and you will probably find its easier to drink afterwards -

Antidepressants not working after my gastric sleeve surgery
Kammie726 replied to Gracie39's topic in Rants & Raves
Effexor XR is a capsule if you shake it you can hear the meds inside those lil balls are suppose to break down and release slowly I could see where you wouldn't get the full benfit from it after surgery I feel like I need to be on something since I've had surgery I am very easily aggregated 90% of the time I never knew how much I used food to calm me down esp at work when its stressful guess that's how I got a 100lbs over weight! -
I hate to cook but that sounds and looks so yummy I will be at the store tomorrow!!

Kammie726 replied to cnunez77's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Very sad I got on the scale today and gained 3lbs ... im pretty sure its fluid since I take a BP med for excess fluid that I haven't taken since surgery but its still no fun seeing the scale go up been a all around awful day when I was pre op this would be the kind of day I would just stuff my face and let food soothe my soul ugh -

Questions after near death experiance in operating room?
Kammie726 replied to Kapoorvilla's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes it sounds like so I know they asked me over and over about previous surgeries I think he didn't want to be surprised either when he got in there! Luckily I had natural child birth and no abdominal surgeries before I remember the nurse saying if I did the orangs can be pushed upwards and be at the top and it would take longer if he had to move them down ... on another note im praying for you and thank god how luck I was I thought I had it rough because of a wreck a week prior seems like a drop in the hat compared to your story -

Kammie726 replied to Kapoorvilla's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Scar tissue is caused anytime they enter the abdominal area and can cause your internal organs to move upwards so even if your scar isn't in "that" area doesn't mean your surgery didn't change things internally is the way it was explained to me -
