Anyone ever lift too much early out and have problems?



Recommended Posts

Yesterday, my 65# son had fallen (Mellodramaticly) and wanted me to help him up and of course decides that Mom is a jungle gym...So I get him off me and tell him Yet again that I'm not allowed to pick him up. So I had some random pains yesterday and today my stomach is achy and not interested in food and I have a jabbing headache.. I'm not sure if the way I feel to day is related to my moment of recklessness yesterday. Anyone have any experience lifting too much early out?

I have done more things that require lifting over the past two days than I have since surgery. I have a 2 yr old so I know how it is that sometimes you don't have much of a choice. Yesterday I had a lot of energy and the baby got a little rambunctious with the play and got on my back like a horsey. Today I went grocery shopping and brought in more groceries than I have in a long time. I have bronchitis so I am coughing a LOT. I am really sore in my midsection and much more tired than I have been in a couple of weeks.

I don't think I have damaged anything. I am able to eat and drink but I have a lot of "bathroom issues" today. I wonder if the movement/exercise got the digestive system going? I figure the soreness is just some exercise

HDub,

Are you on antibiotics for the bronchitis? I cannot take any kind of pennicilin or derivative. All antibiotics put me in the bathroom. I always have to take a probiotic for about three weeks afterwards.

I hope you are feeling better soon!!!!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
