Did your dr put you on blood thinners when you left the hospital after surgery? I was on them for two weeks after. Anyways glad you caught it. And hope you feel better about everything. I am almost 6 weeks out. I am just at the point of not regretting surgery. I was nauseous all the time. Still not 100%. And food doesn't really taste good to me anymore. Probably a good thing or I wouldn't be where I am. But now I can see the weight coming off so it will get better Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hi all. I have. An autoimmune disease called polymialgia rheumatica. Took a long time to diagnose because the average age of first diagnosis is 70. And I was 46. I had actually lost 96 pounds on my own and was in the best shape of my life. But steroids for years has put me back up over 200. So I had the sleeve done 6 weeks ago. I am tapering off prednisone. May take a year. And my rheumatologist wants me to take methotrexate. I forget who mentioned taking that I know it's a chemi drug. Any bad side effects and did it work for you? Also the original poster mentioned eyesight problems. One of the side effects of polymialgia rheumatica is giant cell something and it can blind you. Pmr. Mimics other diseases and is hard to diagnose. Needless to say my weight loss after surgery has been slow. I don't eat. Much. My rheumatologist says that the steroids make your body hold onto the weight. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I add almond milk to the Greek yogurt. It is too thick. I am almost 5 weeks out. I eat half a yogurt at a time. Ground turkey made me sick too. Try weight control oatmeal. Add extra water Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

I was sleeved almost 5 weeks ago. I am nauseous almost all the time too. Yogurt Protein shakes. Tuna salad chicken salad. oatmeal. Are the easiest. If I eat anything else. It's not good. Tonight I made beautiful lump crab cakes. I ate almost a half of one. Then I felt bad. I have had the foam thing and thrown up too. After eating grilled chicken. Probably too dry. Maybe one bite too much. Maybe I ate too fast. I hope that one day I can say I am happy I did this. But stick to basics. Maybe it takes longer to heal. I am fifty years old maybe my body heals slower than others. Keep the faith Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

I love the amaretto hot chocolate. Also the mushroom Soup. I didn't like the powder juice protein. I bought Popsicle molds and made them into Popsicles. Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

Hi I am 4 weeks out and nauseous too. It comes and goes. I take the meds for it sometimes. I had the foam twice. Once it felt like something was stuck. The dr said either I ate too fast or I drank too much before I ate. It's not a problem. Just gross. Hang in there. I used to love Water now I have to drink it mixed with something to get it down.

Best of luck Dan. You will hopefully be able to get some sleep after your surgery. My nurses seemed to come into my room every hour. I kept telling them to let me sleep. I finally gave up and walked the halls. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I would just say thank you. It is personal. My husband is the only one that knows I had the surgery. We just moved out of state so I have a couple months to get my eating back to almost normal I hope. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Good to know Andrea. I am almost 3 weeks out. Supposed to be able to eat regular Protein etc. but the only non yogurt soft food i can tolerate so far is. Tuna on crackers. I even had frothing yesterday yuck. I ate half a crab cake while out to lunch. Just the middle not the fried part. I am hoping because I drank like 20 oz of Water an hour before? It felt like something was stuck halfway down. Then I spit up foam. As long as it will get better I will go back to yogurt and cottage cheese. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
