So when I go to bed I am exhausted.😴 1 Kbridge reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not cat napping, but not able to sleep much. I'm yawning and ready for bed at 10 pm, but when I actually lie down and get comfortable it's just tossing and turning for at least an hour, then awake at 5 am. I think tonight I'm going to try having a warm shower before I get into bed and maybe some chamomile tea around 9 instead of Water. 1 Kbridge reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MissPoodle 58 Posted October 2, 2018 Anyone having trouble sleeping? I have been cat napping 15-20 minutes at a time and its wearing me out![emoji20]I'm 2 weeks post op today and last night was the first full night's sleep. I remember at the beginning how uncomfortable it was and i needed to nap in the day because of the lack of sleep at night. What i found helpful was putting a pillow under my knees when i was laying on my back...it took the strain and stretched feeling away from my stomach. I had another pillow i hugged when i tried to lay on my side...another way to take the weight off my stomach. It really helpedSent from my SM-G950F using BariatricPal mobile app 1 Kbridge reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then I found this supplement at Earth Fare supermarket for around 19.00 and it worked for me. Took about 4 days for it to kick in. But I took it just before bedtime and it seems to straighten my system out. I hope this will work for you also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

While I do know itching is a sign of healing for an incision the rash is concerning. Hopefully you will find out why or what is causing the rash today.

gbjourney6 10 Posted October 4, 2018 Hello everyone, I had my bypass on Sept 24th and I had a doctor follow up this week and he stated I can start eggs. So this next morning, Wednesday I had 1 scrambled egg and I couldn't finish because I started having this feeling like it was stuck in my chest, not tightening of my chest but stuck. I walked around for a few mins then drank some Water after 30 mins same feeling with water. It been happening with everything except for popsicles. So I have not been consuming too much because of the feeling. Anyone experiencing this? 1 Liz The New Me reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
