[emmas mom 4]

hi guys, I am 6 days post op and all day today I have been sweating like crazy. I dont feel sick, my temp is normal. Im still sore on my left side from were they cut the muscle, but, I am also experiencing lower left back pain, directly behind were it hurts in the front. Has anyone else felt like this> Maybe I am over doing it?

The sweating and clamminess can be a side effect of ketosis. You are likely in ketosis which just means your body is in fat burning mode. I havn't had my VSG yet but I remember ketosis from my low carb days. As far as the other stuff, what does your dr say?

The doc says the pain on the lower left side is from were she cut the muscle. But, the back pain comes and goes. I havent talked to the doc since the surgery. My follow up is soon though and if the pain consists, I will definately get checked! Thanks for the reply! That makes me feel alot better! Good luck with your surgery!
