Strange issues after sleeve surgery anyone?



Recommended Posts

Hi just was curious about a few things that I have been going on since surgery. One thing after surgery it was all great till I lost like 45 pounds. Then all of the sudden I got stasis dermatitis on my legs. Then my urine looks green like every few weeks but they say my kidneys blood work is great. Does anyone else have anything weird going on. As of today I am 79.6 pounds down. Hope nothing elese pops up.

I was curious about the green pee, so this is what I found:

There are several possible causes of green urine. Urinary tract infection is the most common, and the urine may appear darkened or cloudy. It may not appear green or may take on a greenish tinge. True green urine is rare and most commonly results from dyes or food colorings or from certain medications.

Is it only happening when you are up walking or are you do something when it hurts? If it feels like muscle pains like you did 300 situps. It is probably just your muscles healing back that they cut thru. That's my opinion at least

Same sort of thing happened to me around 1 week post op. My doc said it was from the shots/deadening medicine they put in my abdomen wearing off. Plus the tissue that was cut thru was healing. I continued to have significant pain on my right side Cuz it was the largest incision where he removed my tummy. Just take it easy and it should pass!

I've heard that tastes can change after surgery. What are you eating when you experience the foamies/sliming? I get that when I eat too much and/or too fast.

Sliming is when you eat too much/too fast and food gets stuck and your body produces saliva to digest,but it has nowhere to go, so it builds up on top of the food. Eventually, you just have to spit it up. It's gross, but it does happen to some. It's happened to me several times, but I tend to eat fast.

Candy what is sliming?

sliming is like an overproduction of thick saliva/mucus it's really gross foaming is similar except it's bubbly spit in your mouth many ppl day it comes from eating too fast and/or too much however ive experienced both during times when I haven't eaten a thing so idk the exact cause

Green pee - are you eating asparagus, green Beans, etc. How about drinking Crystal Light lemonade? These combos cause it for me.

Lap-banded and love 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.
