First Menstrual cycle...Help

[davidsmom08 0]

Ok...so TMI I know but...I am just starting into my first menstrual cycle and I am feeling kinda funny. I was banded 6/19 and tomorrow is my first day of mushies (yeah). I'm feeling a little light headed and dizzy today...could this be that I am just really hungry or is this normal with your cycle after being banded.

Don't worry about the TMI, a lot of us have information we can share/ask about since we have a common experience, but that said, perhaps you haven't found the sub forum for women where you may get other answers. I didn't discover some of those sub forums till I'd been here several months. I just didn't scroll down far enough.

My first cycle after banding was odd. It was longer than usual. Try stepping up the Iron in your foods, or if it gets to be worse see if you can get the OK for an iron supplement from your doctor.

I just had my first one too I had not one since Nov of last year

my OB/said it was to my weight gain. And know that I have lost weight it has started it was kinda weird. I have been drained so tired.

We were banded the same the day and you able to go mushies. My DR. has his patient on liquids for three weeks. I envy you.
