I Am So Afraid For My Mom... She's Going To Be Sleeved.
JaspersGirl posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
My mom is going to be sleeved hopefully this year. Tomorrow she has her psych appt. I don't know how my mom was able to support my decision to go under the knife. I am afraid for my mom, how about if there are complications and she dies? I don't want anything bad to happen to my mom What will I do without her... just very worried. She is a good candidate for this surgery. She is 54yrs young, asthma, depression, borderline diabeties, arthritis, nothing major. sigh... I just am a worry wart. She is approx 4ft 10 and weighs 220lbs, so she does need this surgery. It's hard for me not to worry. -

JaspersGirl replied to JaspersGirl's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I stopped going to their support groups because I was the only new one that would go and everyone else was veterans, lol. I felt left out when they would tell stories, haven't been to a support group in 6months! So who knows maybe there are more newbies there? They seem pretty cool and family knit type of closeness. I had dr Kissinger as my psych dr. my mom has her appt with dr P. -

Zoloft And Weight Gain
JaspersGirl replied to randalljohn's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have a huge anxiety problem and depression. I take zoloft and xanax, I just started zoloft not too long ago and since it has helped me loose a few lbs, when I took welbutrin it made me gain... I guess everybody reacts differently to meds? I hope you find the one that can help you out without gaining -

Encouragement Needed Please!
JaspersGirl replied to Disney_Diva's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
oh, don't feel that way.. I think the first 3 days are the worse, after that it is a breeze... seriously after I went home I didn't need the pain meds. I had alot of gas pains but my dr recommend me to drink prune juice and that helped me poop and gas out, lol. Ask your dr before doing so, everyone is different. Also what did hurt was my back.. the inflation they do.. like a cartoon human balloon, lol. This surgery was the best thing I could have ever done! I am happy to have done it!!!!!!! we are here to help you get through these days.. any questions, we are here, this is your support group <3 -
I am with everybody here, you are still healing, so there will be little discomfort and pain. I however am different, I was happy with my surgery and I just had my 1yr anniversary and hit major depression.. you just can't imagine how sad I am. I call off of work alot lately, i just don't want to go out and deal with life..... but tomorrow i have an appt with my dr to help me with this depression. I hate to feel so sad, if you are that sad like I am.. please see someone, because it does hurt
