I'm hot...no, I'm cold..no...



Recommended Posts

I'm 4 days post-op and I am rarely comfortable temperature-wise. I keep flip-flopping every couple of minutes. Could it be hormones?

I am 9 days post op and I have been feeling the same. More cold than hot though. I have been assuming it was surgery related but would really like to know if it's something else.

I had the craziest hot flashes since my sleeve surgery 4/15. This past Monday I met with my endocrinologist who ran my bloodwork, sure enough I needed to drastically lower my thyroid meds. The surgery definitely causes hormonal changes. If you have any prior hormonal issues it is wise to have those hormone levels checked and treated.

With rapid weight loss you are going to have extreme hormone changes. I have had the hot and cold thing but I have also had tingling in my feet and hands. Everybody handles it different but in the end you will be fine.

I have been hot natured my entire life. Since surgery, I've had to sleep with TWO blankets. It's kinda freaking me out. I also have a sore throat and I know it's not tube related. I can't afford to get sick a week post op.

Wow! I thought I was the only one feeling like this! I'm hot or cold, shivering or sweating! It's crazy. I think it's just the shock to our systems after surgery. I haven't been running a fever at all but I sure feel like it.

      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.
