Should I Be Concerned ?

[ChinaWood 30]

I had my sleeve placed this past Wednesday I came home Thursday. I started cramping and now I have something like a light cycle but I just had one on September 9th. Did anyone else go through this, I hope its not TMI But they took a pregnancy test before surgery and it said negative. So could it just be the stress of the procedure?

I could see your body reacting to the trauma in different ways. I would think this is normal. When in doubt call your dr. Also if your nervous I would just take a test. I'm a worrier so I would make myself crazy with the what ifs. Sorry I couldn't offer more insight.

The same thing happened to me. Having a period after surgery, I was told, is not unusual.

Thank you both, I think its just a reaction to the surgery. Because like I said the test was negative the day of and I had not had intercourse since the 21 of September. I should be ok, I so don't want that right now !!

I had the same thing happen to me-crazy hormones from the surgery...

Good to know I was not alone.

Don't forget they give u blood thinners. This happened to me but mine was due bit very heavy. My cycle is almost never heavy. I'm def blaming the blood thinners

Right after surgery, I got my period and it was horribly heavy due to the blood thinners.

Chinawood, it has happened to MANY of us. No worries but do check w your doc if it gets out of hand. You don't want to become anemic.
