  3. Different for everyone, two weeks out and you should feel someone normal again FYI, what I didn't know is that your hormones go crazy, like as if your prego, at least that's how it was for me!!! So feel free to cry! Best of luck... Hang in there !! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

  7. I'm glad it helped, I am doing much better, basically back to normal daily activities.... I feel great. The best advise I can give you is make sure you have support, especially if you have kids, I didn't have anyone with me when I got home to help with anything and that was my biggest mistake... I'm single mom, so it was just me... It made everything much more difficult.. Really try to stay hydrated! It makes you feel 100x worse... I had to get IV fluids 3 times, but that was bc I couldn't get anything down.... From what I understand my case is a worse case scenario and not so common, but be prepared just in case. Best of luck to you!!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

  9. Thank you so much for writing.. I didn't realize I was have the trifecta affect.... I didn't even know hormones were going to go crazy! Holy crap!!!! Never want to experience that again!! I am finally starting to feel better, turned the corner so to speak yesterday.... It was the first day I got all my fluids in and then some. I still don't have my Protein in but I am slowly working on that... That is the goal for this week.... I pray things continue to get better from here!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  10. Sleeve on 8/11/16 I have never been more miserable. I wish every day that I never had this done. I have had many issues, been back to out patient 3 times for IV fluids bc I can't get or keep anything down. Had several test that came back "normal". In unable to function well. Over emotional, extremely short on patience. Only one week until school starts for kids, I have nothing ready for them, I am primarily in bed or couch with nausea or pain from trying to get anything down.. I also return to school in two weeks and have an exam to take upon returning... I can't even study for it... This procedure has caused complete havoc on my life which I did not anticipate. I wouldn't of done this and jeopardized my schooling or caring for my children had I know how extreme post op was going to be... I'm so very angry and mad at myself for going thorough with this... Worse decisions I ever made...: I'm so mad that I don't even care about the weight loss.... I'm an emotional wreck literally wasting away... This was so not worth it... I don't know how to forge on, I can't get much down, just about 4oz of Water a day...6oz on a good day... I feel like I am literally wasting, and that my dr just isn't concerned. I should have been hospitalize days ago, instead he said, I'll see you in another week... How long is the suffering going to be???? I can't take much more of it.... Please help.... Any suggestions or ideas???? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
