Oh no! My hair is falling out!
I lost a ton of hair! I didn’t think it was going to stop but it did eventually. Months 4-9 were rough but I didn’t go bald! And you won’t either!

February 2017 sleevers
Hi! I was sleeved on 2/15/17 and have lost 62lbs since surgery and a total of 74 since I started my journey!

Is this normal?
Yes! Very common. I talked to my doctor about it at then time... he said liquid going in, liquid coming out. Ew. Hang in there, it will pass. lol

Barium Swallow test?
I had one. Some surgeons require them and some don't.

Struggles
Have you reached out to your doctor? Something doesn't sound right. I'm have some similar issues, I'm 10 weeks out. I recommend colace if you're having constipation issues. I hope things start working soon!

How much water should I be drinking?
I know I need to make this much more of a focus. I'm finding it difficult to get the fluid in and the food in. Still figuring it out I guess.
-
How much water should I be drinking?
I find it hard to get water (or any liquid) in. What should my goal be? Almost 11 weeks out. I'm probably averaging 32oz. Is that enough to keep dehydration away? I was admitted to the hospital once already for dehydration and would really like to avoid that again.

I'll eventually be able to eat more, right?
Not mean at all!! It IS an amazing tool. I'm just ready for the next stage. Because of all the back and forth in the hospital I think my stomach is weeks behind. Thanks for all your help!

I'll eventually be able to eat more, right?
Oh I don't want to eat eat eat, I just want to be I don't know more normal.

I'll eventually be able to eat more, right?
I have a portal vein blood clot and just got over a nasty throat infection. Thanks, glad to hear. I think my stomach is just behind.

I'll eventually be able to eat more, right?
I've had a couple or complications but now I'm back on track, my issue is I can't eat! I'm 6.5 weeks out and can eat 2oz of yogurt, or 1.5oz of chicken salad, or 1 slice of deli meat. At what point should I expect to eat a somewhat reduced regular diet?

5 weeks out and still feeling horrible.
I've been in to see them twice.. no leaks, no inflammation, nothing. Just nausea. Their cure is to wait it out..

5 weeks out and still feeling horrible.
Has this happened to anyone else? When did it subside? I'm (no exaggerating) am nauseous 24/7, having a hard time getting liquids and food in, nothing sounds appetizing. I've been the the ER twice for pain and dehydration and have had every test in the book. There is nothing wrong. I'm miserable. Is this going to be my new life? HELP
