Liver Nodules after Sleeve
Newbeva replied to Newbeva's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks. I will ask when I see him. The scheduler said it'd be a pre op so I think he is wanting to just go ahead and remove it. I will have to wait a little while though cause I've only been back to work 3 weeks. -

I had an ultrasound done last week to check my gallbladder. My provider's office called me today to schedule an appointment to come in to discuss the results but couldn't discuss them with me over the phone so I called the imaging center and they sent me the ultrasound report. In it it showed that I have moderate to large amount of sludge in the gallbladder and also that I have a "hyperechoic mass involving the left lobe of the liver" and recommended a CT for further visualization. My surgeon's office told me there was no rush in me coming in to discuss the results so that makes me feel a little better... but I wanted to know if there was anyone else that had had this show up on an ultrasound after the surgery. They didn't mention a mass after surgery so I'm assuming it wasn't there then. part of me wonders if it is from the liver retractor.

Menstrual cycle changes
Newbeva replied to Newbeva's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hopefully the surgery will eventually cause me to be one of the lucky ones that have no periods with the Mirena. As of right now, my Gyn put me on am Estrogen patch twice weekly for three months to stop the bleeding and hopefully keep it under control. So far only a little spotting since 2 days after putting my first patch on -

Menstrual cycle changes
Newbeva replied to Newbeva's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My body didn't agree with the mirena. I bled daily for 2.5 years after getting it. I finding just starting getting normal cycles 6 months ago. Only reason I didn't get it removed is we definitely weren't ready for another baby. So to have it come back daily sucks! I had planned on hormones being messed up during the weight loss but I didn't think it'd be this bad. It's almost like as my uterus is trying to build the lining back up, my body just won't let it and it's constantly shedding. I'm going to schedule an appointment with my regular Dr on Monday to check my levels and see how my iron is now. Thank you for sharing your experience. Hopefully soon this will level off. -

It's still there. That was the first thing I checked. -

I've tried them. I wasn't a fan of the flavor. But they were recommended by my dietician

Feeling regret is totally normal. I felt it from around day 4 to day 8. It was bad. But it was all my head and seeing the yummy food my friends kept posting on Facebook or getting an email from Pizza Hut. It gets better. I'm almost 3 weeks post off now and I am much happier.

So... personal question. Is there anyone else that has the Mirena and after surgery your menstrual cycle decided to go haywire? Had my cycle before surgery. Ended day of surgery. 2 days later it's back and has been non stop ever since. That was 3 weeks ago. If it were just spotting... I wouldn't mind too much. I was used to that. But this is full force. I know my estrogen is probably playing a part in it... but I am getting very tired of this. Lol. I had just started having normal monthly cycles 6 months ago with Mirena so I was very happy to be done with the daily bleeding. I don't think my body liked it too much for a couple years. Now I feel good enough for some "fun" with my husband... but my body is not allowing it! Today is the first day I've had cramping with it... but I just wish it would go away.

That sounds amazing! Can you post a pic so I know what to get? I too am a chick FIL a ccokies and cream addict!

Still on full liquids so I blended some of the chili my husband made for dinner and it was amazing. Ate between 2 and 3 Oz and was full. Felt good to eat something other than broth.

In a stall you can bounce around a few pounds up or down. Also jeep in mind if you're anywhere near your cycle some bloating could be a contributing factor. Give it another week and weight again and you may be pleasantly surprised.

Yes. Sugar free pudding was allowed day 2 for me as well. I like to eat it cold. The chocolate now tastes sweeter so it's like I'm indulging
