Pre-Surgery Migraine Sufferers?
Rocsi replied to MississippiQueen's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I know before my surgery in September I had bad headaches. They pretty much lasted all day. I couldn't take any meds I know would work to take the pain away. Extra strength Tylenol does not work for me. I was having caffeine withdrawals. After surgery was a different story. I got a headache the day after but so far it's like I'm cured from my migraine headaches I used to have everyday. I am so much happier without those headaches -
I had my surgery on Sept 23rd, so a little more than two months. My depression has gotten much better snd my headaches. I have got rid of the daily headaches I used to have. But I'm still really moody.

Has anyone been experiencing mood swings. I have been getting into it with my husband lately for just about anything. I can't keep my anger under control. I have gotten very impatient with him and I can't explain why I'm being so mean and hateful. Please help.

Mommy Makeover in Tiajuana by Dr.Maclovio Yanez
Rocsi replied to J.Cross's topic in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
Is it really worth it to go all the way to Mexico to get plastic surgery? I mean with the cost of surgery and travel expenses. Do u have to travel to get a consolidation and then again for surgery? How does that work. I researched a surgeon in Monterey but I'm not sure if I would go that route. I have so many questions. -
How bad is it for me to be eating pizza, chips with cheese. I'm only about 5 weeks out and should only be eaying soft foods. I do eat soft foods for the most part. I'm wondering what is the damage I've done if I eat these foods. I also ate one hotdog and mac n cheese. Can someone Let me know. I have stayed away from sweets. I ate pickles and jalapenos.

Six incisions...Why?
Rocsi replied to FatToFabulous's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Anyone having problems with incisions being itchy. If so what are u using. My whole stomach area is itchy. -
Thanks. I'm ready for real food. Does anyone know when can I eat sour and spicy foods
-
I have the same problem and also have lots of gas. I want it to be over.

I don't know if anyone had a problem with getting fully put under. I had the worst experience with this surgery. I pretty much felt everything. I felt them cuting me or more like stabbing me. I felt the pressure on my organs, the stapling of my stomach. I felt the tubes going down my throat and I couldn't do anything about it. I heard everyone talking and the music was playing. It was horrible. I would think twice before going under the knife again. Don't mean to scare anyone but did anyone else experience this. My spirits are down ever since. I wonder if I made the right decision on having this surgery.

Thank you Susan
-
I thank everyone for ur support. It was a horrible experience and I just needed to vent. I know others didn't like my post but I felt it needed to be said. Posting it has made it better for me even if it bothered others. I know it is rare so I just had to know if anyone has experienced it. I wish the best for everyone still waiting for their day of surgery.

Whos in September? We need some September buddies!
Rocsi replied to janie2024's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm on September 23rd in San Antonio. I'm getting scared of who I'll see in the mirror a few months after surgery. I'm also getting excited. -
Oh that's true. I was drinking a lot of caffeine. Thanks for reminding me of that. Knowing why I'm getting these headaches makes me feel better. Thanks again
-
I've been on this pre op diet for four days and I keep getting headaches. I'm losing my mind cause I can only take extra strength Tylenol. That does not work for me as for as headaches. Is anyone having the same problem?
-
I also only told a few people but my husband us telling everyone about it. I guess he was the one who needed to be convinced. I was upset with him telling others but I'm over it.

Whos in September? We need some September buddies!
Rocsi replied to janie2024's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm scheduled for September 23. Anyone else. Cant wait cause my body is in pain. -
Hi, everyone this is my first post about my surgery. I was to the point of scheduling for my surgery but decided to hold off. Now I'm waiting for my insurance to approve my surgery for the second time. I was doing good at one point and was trying to loose weight and eating slower. But now I'm have lost my motivation. I have been reading of people losing weight before surgery. This is a big concern for me. I'm eating now like no tomorrow. I hate feeling hopeless and lazy to exercise. Anyone going through the same issues. I have no motivation right now. I'm hoping to get sleeved at the end of September.
