Amanda Nicole Hosaflook 65 Posted January 17, 2014 I'm 9 days post op. I can hardly stand for 5 minutes without getting out of breath. I can't take my Vitamins, they make me sick. I'm getting all my Protein in. Not my Water though. I started my period today, maybe that's it? Idk.. I'm wondering if I should go to the hospital... My Bari center is closed today.

UK Cathy 977 Posted January 17, 2014 I'm certainly no expert but breathing difficulty is so not right, why would this be linked to your period? Go and get yourself checked out. If it is dehydration they can give IV fluids, if it is nothing they can reassure you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amanda Nicole Hosaflook 65 Posted January 17, 2014 I'm exhausted without doing much physical activity. I can't even do laundry. During my period I feel more tired. That's why I didn't know if it had anything to do with it. I'll see how I'm feeling tonight. Might go get some IV fluids. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Suko75 10 Posted January 17, 2014 I am no expert either but I was like that short walk to the bathroom made me short of breath as well I am 17 days post now and much better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SuperFab 689 Posted January 17, 2014 I'd go to the hospital. I bet u need an IV infusion. Once you're not so dehydrated I bet you'll feel better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kindle 8,667 Posted January 17, 2014 That's so weird....on day 9 I was feeling super fatigued and crampy and achy. Almost like I was getting the flu. Still felt off the morning of day 10, but went to work and was feeling normal by the afternoon. Not to say you shouldn't seek help, but it's ironic that was the same day I felt that way.

slvrsax 301 Posted January 17, 2014 I have a standing order for IV fluids at a local walk in clinic. I haven't had to use it yet. I was surprised a walk in clinic could give IV fluids. Maybe this would be a good route to avoid an emergency room co-pay if you end up needing fluids. 1 SuperFab reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amanda Nicole Hosaflook 65 Posted January 18, 2014 Feeling better today. Forced down tons of liquids and had my husband pick up gummy vitamins from cvs. I must have been dehydrated and partly malnourished. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
