Was banded on the 18th & was on my period. It stopped early. I thought it may be the anesthesia???

Siemers17, I'm not sure I understaqnd what you're saying, but you're having vaginal bleeding after your period has stopped?

If it concerns you, why are you asking about that in a lap-band post-op area, instead of calling your doctor or GYN?

Because you're banded doesn't mean that everything that happens to your body from here on out will be a product of your band. If this is atypical for you, concerning you in any way, or causing you any pain -- heck, even if you're just curious, you'd really be better served by calling your GYN.

Best of luck.

I had my period on the day of surgery, it came early, 24 days between, instead of my usual 28. Since the surgery, its come every 24 days. I have an appt with the GYN in April, so I can find out why there was this change.

Definately talk to your doctor.

I was banded on 3/24. The last mandatory hospital class I went to, they told us that no matter when you had your last period you would probably get it again right after surgery.

Hmmm...that's interesting. I wonder why?

I was told the same thing. I was banded on the 18th and my period has been off and on since then. They say the anesthesia messes it up.

There can be many reasons for it but probably not related to the band but maybe the anesthesia. Call you doctor and ask. I've been spotting for the last 6 months about a week before I start. Your cycle can change with age and for many reasons.

      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.
