I am 8 days out. I am terrified that I will lose what little hair I have. I am already using a topper wig. Have had long battle with thyroid issues. So the top of my hair is thin and baby fine. Recently went for my 1 wk post-op visit. The nutritionist assured me that more will fall. She said that because of that drastic hormone change that the body will endure, hair will fall. Thankfully I have a very supportive Husband. He already told me to start looking for a wig now, before I wake up one morning and find myself bald.

Sounds like symptoms of reactive hypoglycemia. Might want to do some research on it.

I had my VSG July 14. On the 18th, seemed like my stomach woke up and said, "What the heck!, where's the food?!" Seems I was hungry all day. Of course I'm still on liquids. This morning I was awaken by terrible cramping in my stomach. I think it's gas. It subsided and went back to sleep. Had a dream a birthed a BIG baby. HAHA Got up. Had a little hot tea...fine. Tried a little broth. Oh man, such pain with each sip!. Is my stomach trying to tell me something?

I am a newbie. My surgery is scheduled July 16th. I am nervous about this situation. So, I have done a lot of research. I am going to try a product called 'Protein 100'. It has 15 gms of protein for every ounce. Has anyone tried something like that?
