Has anyone had any problems with there monthlys. My last one was week bwfore aurgery 7 weeks ago. My tubes r tied but still confused lol

I've heard that the surgery can mess that up a bit your body is all crazy right now... Hormones nd everything check with your dr of course but I think it's normal

I was wondering if anyone had the Mirena, I had not had a cycle in years before I had the surgery. Then last week, boom!!!!! It lasted a whole week, I didn't even have supplies! LOL! I didn't expect this and the doctor didn't mention it.

Mine either! My situation sounds so similar... Sick' date=' pain, another surgery for bowel obstruction and my husband saw me about 30 min total in 4 days. Wasn't even there when I went in or came out of surgery.[/quote']

Sounds like my man.

Yes...I have the mirena in and no period this whole time. I had surgery on 4/23 also. Same thing happened to me BOOM there it was. Grrrrrrr I hope it does not continue. I assumed it was because my body was in shock and under stress.

Me too!!! I have a mirena and haven't had a period since my son was born. Then all the sudden, i got my period too. Craziness! I always thought it was because of the mirena and not the fact that i gained thirty lbs and never got it off. Who knew! Lol

Ugh, I woke up this morning and both underarms are swollen and tender. I can see big lumps from my lymph glands. I called the surgeon and he said to get into my regular doctor. I don't have a high fever, just a slight one. I hope it's not from an infection or something. I go in at 9.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
