question for us older ladies



Recommended Posts

Has anyone experienced vaginal bleeding while on a pre op diet? I haven't had a period in years, and it's just spotting, but it's every day. I don't know if it's the lack of food, liquids only, or the supplements.< /p>

My surgery is May 27th so I'm on the pre op till then. I wonder if I should ask the doctor? Any suggestions?

NO !!!! and I haven`t read or heard about it anywhere on the forums ...

I would go see the doctor , not necessarily the surgeon but your normal doctor and have it looked into ..

Maybe a phone call to the surgeon to see what he thinks ..

Please let us know its a puzzling symptom...

Best of Luck..

Went to the dr. today. He thinks I have an enlarged uterus. I'll have an ultra sound next week. I had this problem about 6 years ago, and they want to do a comparison with that ultra sound to see if anything has changed. Doesn't sound like a major problem.

Formula

lbs / 2.2 = kilograms

kg x 2.2 = pounds

Examples

A man weighing 70 kilograms weighs 154 pounds

70 kg x 2.2 = 154 lbs

A woman weighing 110 pounds weighs 50 kilograms

110 lbs / 2.2 = 50 kg

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
