Did you sweat less after surgery?

[heidikat72 935]

I just commented about this the other day! I had surgery in June and I sweat so much less now! In fact I was outside saturday afternoon for 3+ hours in 99 degree heat and barely broke a sweat - think "glistening" instead of dripping. It is a great side effect!

In the beginning I didn't sweat. I will be a yr post op 9/2 and I've been sweating again.

I am 8 months out and I used to sweat really bad even in an air conditioned room. Now I don't sweat as bad but I have always been a sweater. This may be TMI but I used to sweat bad between my legs. Now I can go all day without my pants being wet. Loving it!

It's not TMI . I can related. I was sleeve may 3rd and am down 60lbs. Not more sweat there unless I'm working out and that's to be expected.

Hi all

**Random question ahead**

After surgery did you notice you sweated less? And not just because you were getting smaller?

I'm a sweater. I sweat in winter, I sweat standing still doing nothing, I sweat thinking about sweating & I sweat even when I'm at my lightest weight so I can't only attribute it to being obese. (& no I don't have hyperhidrosis).

I know someone who just stopped sweating after surgery and I'm desperately hoping this will happen to me too.

Thanks

I would love to not sweat after getting the surgery! I sweat going to the bathroom (TMI, I know). I absolutely hate sweating all the time, at anytime.

OMG this is my dream!! I sweat so so so much -- far more than anyone I'm around and while I hope getting smaller will help to a degree, I didn't realize the surgery itself might have an effect!

I was freezing for about a week after surgery. Then things normalized. But now that you mention it, I DO sweat less

So much less. I'm 6 weeks out and it's been a steady 90+ degrees here in which I would usually be dripping with sweat just going from my house to my car, let alone commuting on a packed subway. It's amazing.

I'm worried because my sweat glands not working, I have dry eyes, and no saliva. My doctor sending me to the ENT doctor to see if he can tell me why.

I would say the opposite, I’ve had several days where I feel flushed and wonder if I did, in fact, shower this morning, because my skin feels like I didn’t. I also haven’t had a day yet where I feel colder despite wearing the same amount of clothing as I did before the surgery. I guess we’ll see what happens this summer.

This is SO EXCITING!!! I am 9 days out and I have been really cold the last few days and thought it was just in my head. I keep having to turn my thermostat up to warm up at home. Fingers crossed my sweating will decrease! I am unfortunately too a “swamp monster” 🤣🤣🤣
