Nope -- got mine the day before my surgery (liquid fast day) and I was fine for most part on surg date --- I was miserable without Advil that day but I figured anesthesia and pain meds would take care of the cramping in a flash

I'm 1 month out today and obviously on my period again now lol

Will talk to my surgeon and most likely obgyn about this in the morning but I'm having an unusually extra extra heavy period. Im 1 month post op. Day 1 was normal with mild cramping but last night and this morning (day 2-3 of period) I've been leaking through 2 & 3& FOUR layers of the extra heavy extra protection purple wrapped always maxi pads!!! I've woken up 2x last night to wash up and change my bed sheets. I've never had to do this before surgery. Anyone had this experience post op? Large clumps of blood each time I use the bathroom. Pre op I only needed 2 large pads at night the first few days of my flow and would wear an ultra tampon while at work or working out with no leak outs. Now I doubt an ultra tampon would last more than 30 minutes without getting soaked and then leak through my undergarments. This can potentially be very embarrassing.

I did. Was in the ER all day -- hemoglobin low at 10 -- blood pressure was a little low too which is unusual cause I'm always normal but no transfusion needed thank God, they gave me fluids and an rx to slow down the vaginal bleeding (post vsg safe) if i need it - the phys asst also gave me a pelvic exam

The bleeding has managed to slow down On its own, thank God

Will follow up with my regular Gyno tomorrow morning

I'm still a little dizzy and lightheaded so I am resting up -- such a scary experience way worse than the dehydration 3 weeks ago
