question for us older ladies

Has anyone experienced vaginal bleeding while on a pre op diet? I haven't had a period in years, and it's just spotting, but it's every day. I don't know if it's the lack of food, liquids only, or the supplements.

My surgery is May 27th so I'm on the pre op till then. I wonder if I should ask the doctor? Any suggestions?

NO !!!! and I haven`t read or heard about it anywhere on the forums ...

I would go see the doctor , not necessarily the surgeon but your normal doctor and have it looked into ..

Maybe a phone call to the surgeon to see what he thinks ..

Please let us know its a puzzling symptom...

Best of Luck..

Went to the dr. today. He thinks I have an enlarged uterus. I'll have an ultra sound next week. I had this problem about 6 years ago, and they want to do a comparison with that ultra sound to see if anything has changed. Doesn't sound like a major problem.

so nothing to do with the pre op diet ..?? will it interfer with your banding at all.. I HOPE NOT.....

Best of luck and keep us informed...

Majj, how many pounds is a kg? I have no idea

Formula

lbs / 2.2 = kilograms

kg x 2.2 = pounds

Examples

A man weighing 70 kilograms weighs 154 pounds

70 kg x 2.2 = 154 lbs

A woman weighing 110 pounds weighs 50 kilograms

110 lbs / 2.2 = 50 kg
