My hair, my hair!
Midwestgirlmomof3 replied to Colleen Webb's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
8 months post op, down 98 pounds. I get all my protein in ...always have and yes I'm still losing hair. They say it will grow back and I sure hope so. I lost a large amount a few years ago taking Topmax and it never came back after that. It's depressing.... -
Did anybody have their period at the time of surgery?
Midwestgirlmomof3 replied to AnaLaura85's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Mine showed up the morning of surgery. I let them know when I was asked to change. Got some lovely granny panties and a pad. My male dr laughed when I told him and said I was one of the extra lucky ones. lol No big deal at all to anyone. -
Hopefully you'll be like me and your migraines will go away for the most part. I could have 12 a month and now only 1 maybe 2 a month. My meds still work wonders for me. It took years to find the right one, but now usually within 30 minutes or so its gone. I take 40 mg of Relpax.

Depressed & Can't meet H20/Protein goals
Midwestgirlmomof3 replied to fullyalive's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
GNC Pro Performance AMP Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60 chocolate with chocolate Fair Life milk and lots of ice is the only protein I like. I too have tried all you've listed plus many many more. My husbands a bodybuilder so the amount of protein we've had in this house is ridiculous. -

Reglan makes me have uncontrollable movement of my arms and legs. I get very agitated and cannot hold still. Thankfully only given to me once in the ER. lol Scary stuff! -

Gross and TMI but I need to know if this is normal
Midwestgirlmomof3 replied to Pazza's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You sound just like me. That's exactly how I was having BM's. I'm 6 months out now and don't ever have that issue any more. I want to say it stopped for me about 3 months out. -

Having a period right before surgery?
Midwestgirlmomof3 replied to Lexigurl82's topic in The Gals' Room
I started mine the morning of surgery. The nurse getting me all checked in and ready for surgery told me to put on the gown and take everything off. Before I could even say I started my period, she finished my sentence for me. She grabbed a pain of those lovely mesh underwear and a pad. She said I wouldn't believe how often that happens and no one thinks twice about it. My male surgeon laughed and said I was one of those lucky ones. Really not an issue at all and I wouldn't even think twice about it. -
Topamax- week one review
Midwestgirlmomof3 replied to youngmilf's topic in GLP-1 & Other Weight Loss Medications (NEW!)
I took that for migraines for about 6 months. I had a huge amount of hair loss and anxiety. Wish I never took it since it didn't help the migraines and the hair loss terrible.
