Hello,

I'm officially one week post op today and went to the salon to get my hair done. I don't know if it was the lights, the smock or what but about halfway through I started to sweat, felt a little nauseous and felt my blood pressure shoot up. My stylist brought me some ice Water and I sat there for a couple of minutes and then it went away. It happened about 30 minutes later as I was about to leave.

I just got home, took my temperature and it was 96.1. I'm a little too young for the change in life so I'm hoping it is related to the surgery.

Did anyone experience this after surgery? I have an appointment with my doctor tomorrow so I will address with her, I just thought I would see if I'm not alone on this one.

Thanks!

You are not alone. I experienced the same thing. Get some Protein in you when that happens. I experience hot flashes when I eat and I was sleeved on May 21st. Hang in there. It will get better.

For the first 2 weeks post op every time I tried to get ready this happened I profusely sweated. I think part of it was dehydration because not much made my hr go to the 140s also your hormones are going crazy right now so that has a lot to do with it too

I'm 2 weeks out almost and do the same thing. I just had my hair done this week and my stylist could tell when one was coming on. She would turn the fans on. Hoping this doesn't last long.

      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.
