Periods and restriction??

[cmr 0]

I am perry -menapausal and I am trying to figure out if that is playing havic with my restriction. Anybody out there have this experience? I sometimes have a period for 10-12days. I think that it might be related to the amount of restriction but it is hard to be sure. Am I crazy??? I can't pinpoint anything specific but I just have a feeling that the two are connected.

I can't offer much help. I haven't had any change since banding. I don't notice any more or less restricition during.

I have seen this discussed on here before so maybe this will bump it and others can provide you more knowledge.

Well I'm the oddball. During my TOM I felt like I lost all restriction and wanted to eat the entire kitchen in one sitting. After the TOM had passed, I went back to my usual restriction and could care less about eating.

I get restricted the week before my period. With ot without a fill. I wish it was mre consistant but I guess we cannot control that. I do try to drink more Water during that time and it seems to help a little bit.

Hey guys-

I am five weeks post op and just got my Visitor a day or so ago. I had very little symptoms of anything on day 1 but on day 2 ( usually heavy day) I suddenly developed Nausea, intestinal cramps, bloating and felt terrible. I felt really restricted today too. Everything I ate feels like it gets stuck. Anyone else? It scared me so bad, up until now I have not had any issues and then all of sudden I felt like I was dying or experiencing a slippage. Hopefully tommorrow it will all go away.
