Monitor your feelings for the first 30 days after you re-start your SSRI. If you notice any changes (heightened depression, listlessness, feelings of loss of self-worth), or even any physical symptoms such as abdominal pains, headaches, or nausea that seem unrelated to the surgery, then have a chat with your prescribing doctor about whether you will need to increase your dosage or switch to another SSRI. Remind yourself that your doctor will work with you to make whatever adjustments are necessary to get you back on track. You'll be okay.

Momof2boyzandadog reacted to GFitz in Any March 2021 Sleeve Patients?
I am not worried, but I did ask my surgeon about this since I take extended release capsules. He said the hospital pharmacist would switch me to a twice daily non-XR pill that I can crush up and take in the beginning and eventually go back to what I normally take. My surgery date is 3/29/21

Hi everyone! I am new to this site and my surgery is scheduled for March 16th. I am worried about post surgery absorption of my antidepressants. Is anyone else in the same boat as me?
