Anit Depressants Post Op?



Recommended Posts

I've been going through some marriage issues for about 6 months now and my Dr has prescribed me Zoloft. I've looked into all of my paperwork given by my surgeon and it doesnt say anything about it. I'm in day 3 now and since then my stomach aches for about 3 minutes and I've had some bathroom issues...and my appetite is non existent. Normally since my survey (12/5/11) I've been consuming around 1200 calories daily and the last 3 days I've only had around 500...I'm just not hungry and when I try to force myself to eat something I feel like I'm cheating or doing something I shouldn't be doing. Anybody know about anti depressants post op? Please help!!

I wish I did. I have taken Zoloft for several years now. It works, I do know that. Sorry I could not help with the post op. Maybe if you do not get an answer on here you should call your doctor.

Some anti depressions cause lack of appetite, and other side effects ask your pharmacy they should be able to answer your problems! If the problem consists talk to the doctor! Remember your health is number 1 that's one of the reason we do this surgery! So remember to put yourself first!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
