    strange smells...

    Yes, I have noticed that my nose is super sensitive as well as taste. Everything smells strong or bad. My sense of taste is weird. I am now sensitive to salt. Even my own perfumes smell strong. I am now 4 weeks post-op. Candace

    Failure

    I know how you feel. I gained 30 lbs of Water weight after my 3 surgeries. I am still waiting to get to my preop weight. I hope I do get there!

  6. Hello everyone, my name is Candace. I just had the gastric bypass surgery a week ago. Unfortunately, I had three surgeries until they got it right. My 2nd and 3rd surgeries were emergency ones and I had blodclots and an obstruction. I was a real live pin cushion for the lab technicians. I was in the hospital for a total of seven days and had to have four blood transfusions. Thank goodness after the third try my surgeon fixed the problem. Here I am one week postop waiting for all this water weight I gained (30lbs) to fall off. I am still in a lot of pain and had to take an additional two weeks off of work which has left me financially strapped. I just pray that in the long run it will all be worth the time, pain, and energy it has cost me.
