Hi everyone. I hope someone can help me. I was banded on 6/20/2011, and for the past month I have alot of nausea. Like almost every day I wake up nauseous and luckily I have nausea meds from my doc. It's just weird that it is every day. Does anyone else have this problem?

Also, for the ladies, does the surgery tend to make your TOM irregular. Now before surgery I was never completely regular, but usually went a two months with out it.I have had it twice, but they were only about a week and a half apart and have lasted a little longer than normal (however have been lighter). I'm sorry if it's TMI, but I don't have anyone else to ask. Please help!! Thank you in advanced for your responses!

But...that wouldn't explain my period. I can see where you would think that though lol.

I would call the doctor. Nausea every day doesn't seem right. Two girls on this forum, who thought they could not conceive, just found out they are pregnant!! Yikes!!:o

Being overweight can mess with our menstrual cycles so it's normal for them to change as we lose weight. Not sure about the nausea though.

I hate to pile on the pregnancy wagon but I personally know several women who have had irregular periods their entire lives to continue to get their period throughout each of their pregnancies. Also as stated being overweight does mess with our cycles as does weight loss. Two pieces of advice, call doctor asap to report the nausea & get a pregnancy test. Good luck & keep us posted!

I'd take a pregnancy test. Not to scare you but the EXACT same thing happened to me with my first son. Thought it was a period, but it was a weird one, come to find out dr suspected it was implantation bleeding (i believe thats what its called) where the egg attaches to the uterus after fertilization. I was only having slight nausea aka morning sickness in the early am and my weird period. I eventually had other symptoms too. Good luck to you!

There's many reasons to bleed during pregnancy and since you stated that they were light and only a week and a half apart, that could have been implantation bleeding or a few other things.

I took a test today and it was negative. On the plus side, no nausea this morning! I'm going to call the doctor now about everything else. Thanks for your replies everyone!

        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!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
