  5. Sickness

    janel1978 posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    I'm almost 4 months out and I never had any issues with sickness. I was able to tolerate almost all food until recently. It seems now no matter what I eat. It makes me sick. Has this happened to anyone else? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

    I have the depo shot and I was informed that sometimes when you have rapid weight loss, it will cause you to have your period. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

    I figured I would give it to the end of the week and if it doesn't lighten I may call the doctor and see what they suggest. I've never bled like this on the shot. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

    janel1978 replied to Lewiswife's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
    My doctor recommended the Depo Shot and I got it the week before surgery. It hasn't effected my weight loss. I'm down almost 30 lbs. My only issue is with losing weight I wonder if it effects the strength? I'm five weeks out since surgery and I've had a heavy period for two weeks. This is something I've never had with the Depo Shot before. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App
