Depression and anxiety
shrinking_wildflower replied to Dropdeadkim's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
This worries me a lot! Psychiatric meds shouldn't be stopped suddenly. I take so many meds for my bipolar that I'd be a complete wreck if they were stopped suddenly. Sent from my SM-N950F using BariatricPal mobile app -

Pain Pump and Blood Thinners
shrinking_wildflower replied to michelle0721's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have been told I will be taking home blood thinners injections too. I once had a D-dime test because of some pain I was having and they suspected a blood clot. The test came back positive but no clot was found on scans, I had the jabs then. For this reason my surgeon doesn't want to take any risks. Sent from my SM-N950F using BariatricPal mobile app -

Any vegetarians or vegans?
shrinking_wildflower replied to Abeille213's topic in Vegetarian or Vegan Eating
Vegan here! I'm due to have gastric sleeve on 5th July and am trying to work out my pre op diet. Can't seem to find a vegan multivitamin that can be used post op. The multivitamin melts the surgeon recommended are not vegan :/ Sent from my SM-N950F using BariatricPal mobile app -
