Another person posted about this...google Keto Flu, since the pre op diet is low carb/Keto, the symptoms are quite similar to the common flu, which would explain the joint or body pains you’re experiencing.

Mine is the morning of December 4th in Houston!

You had the sleeve?? You’re throwing up every-time you eat??

You can get them at just about any health store or vitamin store. I bought some for my sister and she said they worked well. It’s used to help break down your food and move it through, especially if you ever have that stuck feeling in your throat or chest. It’s worth a try!

It could be Keto Flu, I haven’t done the sleeve yet but from what I’ve read, the Pre Op diet is low carb. As a result, Keto Flu can happen which mimics Flu like symptoms, which is also a characteristic for us Fibromyalgia sufferers ☹️

Cymbalata works great for the pain, but I was already struggling with chronic fatigue and sleepiness all the time, and it just made me more tired and sleepy than I already was. If you can withstand it long enough and get through side effects, it’s great. I’m sorry to hear that surgery isn’t helping much with your pain...

I’ll bet it feels like it’s so far away!

I have Fibromyalgia and Osteoarthritis...are there any Sleevers with these diagnoses? Has your pain and condition improved after surgery?

That’s one of my biggest fears is daily vomiting ☹️

I haven’t had the sleeve yet, still in the research phase. Ive heard a few people talk about papaya enzymes. It’s supposed to be really good in helping with the stuck feeling and digestive problems.

So true!

How’s dating been for sleevers out there? Just wondering when would be the right time to say anything or if you should say anything. I’m just wondering during outings, like at dinner with someone new you’re dating, and maybe didn’t tell them you had surgery, how do you handle it. I’m thinking they would start to notice how you’re eating...or not eating, especially in the very beginning when you’re on liquids and puréed. I haven’t had surgery yet, hopefully I’ll be approved before the year is up.

I’m glad when I hear people are doing well, I’m always afraid I’ll be that one rare person who has a failed sleeve surgery [emoji33]
