tmoss 33 Posted May 5, 2012 Are there any men since being sleeved use the bathroom less than before. I swear I could possibly go all day and not even take a piss. Before the fact I was using the bathroom at least once an hour. I drink Water all day and still don't have the urge to pee. Are there any men experience this.

urbandecayno5 40 Posted May 5, 2012 Not a man but im having the same issue. I've just been timing myself once every 4 hours. Its the weirdest thing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sandpiper 6 Posted May 5, 2012 I'm sorry, but I'm a female too and I have the same thing going on. I have been struggling to get my output up because my Dr. says that this whole process is really dependent on being hydrated... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jailynn 49 Posted May 5, 2012 Same here....not a man....hardly go at all. My blood work showed my BUN was elevated and my doc says I have to drink more Water (which is hard but I'm trying) but literally if I saved it up all day, I bet I go less than 8 oz. Remember peeing like a normal person? I'm amazed every time I'm in a public bathroom and here other woman going (gross I know)..but I notice this now.

Helo-Tech 7 Posted May 5, 2012 Just had my sleeve done on Monday (30), had trouble going the first day or two but it wasn't because i didn't have any, I ended up needing a cath. which relieved 1400cc at one time, since then been going every couple hours and a fair amount each time, I don't what to suggest to you but I know that if your eating things like Soup that have alot of salt you will retain fluids like crazy. becareful of your salt intake.

Mews 37 Posted May 5, 2012 I know that this is the men's room but I just wanted to chime in because I've noticed a difference too. Pre-op I would regularly go four or five times a day. Now eight weeks out I rarely go more than twice. I'm drinking the recommended amount of fluids and I don't eat much of anything with salt in it. I just think it's one of those weird side effects of surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sergeant_Hotsauce 18 Posted May 6, 2012 I'm not having any problem going to room. I don't go as often since I can't drink a whole bottle of Water in one swoop. I'd say I go 4 or 5 times a day. That's about the only way I know if I'm hydrated or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tsleeve 0 Posted May 13, 2012 Keep in mind that a lot of fluids come from food, not just liquids. Eating less with cause less urine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
