My eyesite is a little off. Anyone else have this? From lack of sleep maybe?

I have read posts to that effect that eye sight was blurry right after surgery. Talk to your dr if you are concerned.

that can happen with the drugs, non sleep, lack of fluids etc... use some drops, if it continues, call your dr...

congrats!

. Do you have a scopolamine patch on??? If so that's what is causing the blurry vision.

I totally had this and I normally have great vision and dont wear glasses. It didntnfreakvme out, lasted an few days, think it wasn't he drugs. As they exited my system and discontinues pain meds which was just about when I got home, sight got better.

Omg this happened to me also! I thought I was going insane..I wear glasses for distance, so when I couldn't see that well up close I was bugging out! Glad to see that I wasn't crazy or going blind! Lol

Anti nausea Meds can do that. I was seeing double even before surgery as soon as they gave it to me IV. I didn't need any anti nausea postop, so vision was normal by the next day.

      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.
