One morning I woke up with a real bad pain on both my middle toes and my heal. I thought the pain was from my shoes so I stopped wearing those. But every day the pain is getting worse :/ it's a burning pain on my toes and top of my feet amd ankles. I was reading up on the Internet that it's common with weight loss surgery.. anyone else have this problem? Going to get checked tomorrow Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk

Gout post op?
sleevemylife replied to sleevemylife's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
wow 5 months, that's a long time for such horrible pain. I'm glad you are doing better. Thank you so much. I am going to the Dr today just to make sure that it is gout. As of now I'm just comparing my symptoms to the internet. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk -

Hey guys just an update on my journey. Remember I was nauseous for days, well I ended up being hospitalized for 4 days.. they had to do an endoscopy cause they couldn't find what was wrong. Ended up being that I had an obstruction so they had to put a balloon to open up my sleeve a little. But I am doing better now just getting my energy back little by little. but other than I am 2 months post op & I am down 57 lbs 3 pant sizes down! So I am very happy about that Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk -

Same for me and I have not been able to narrow down the cause… sometimes I think it is because I ate too much, but sometimes it happens after a string cheese stick… not my vitamins, either, because some times it happens when I eat and do not take my vitamins for that meal… Also, not too much sugars. Hope it goes away soon!I honestly have not had an appetite so I know it's not because of eating too much. even after drinking water I get nauseous :/ I get a bad taste in my mouth and blehh. So tired of the feeling. i have an appt today let's see how it goes. Hope you feel better soon Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk -

5 weeks post op and feeling so nauseous it doesn't go away all day. I've been like this for a week already and I just want it to go away, I hate feeling like this! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk -
My surgery date is Oct 13th & I thought I was gonna need to do the liquid diet the week before but I talked to my nutritionist yesterday and she told me only some surgeons require that but mine doesnt.. only the day before. Can someone give me some advice on what would be good to eat please. I want the process to be as smooth as possible. Thanks in advance!

the other day my friend invited me out to play billards to distract myself a bit since I've pretty much just been home. And I started feeling light headed and got tired just standing up. We had to make it a short night cause I felt super weak. Once I was home I vomited and checked my blood pressure and it was fine but my heart rate was way up. I think it was 120 if I'm not mistaken. I could feel my heart beating super fast I got scared but I layed down and tried to relax and eventually took a nap for about an hour. after I woke up I still felt really weak for the rest of the night but the next day I was better. Learned my lesson the hard way, I still have to wait a bit to start doing those things. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk -

@@60&goin4it yeah that's what they told me also. I feel more relieved knowing they told you the same. I was just scared to move too fast or do something that'll harm my incisions. I'm doing alot better, nomore nausea at all. Trying to get the most water I can. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk -

I don't think you should worry about your liver, I was only on a 1 day liquid diet. & I would just follow all directions. I started drinking the magnesium citrate about 2 hrs late cause they took forever to register me at the hospital. but I was fine. Don't be nervous, hope everything goes great!
