New To Site - Quick Question

Hi everybody. I have been lingering on the site for a few months now and this is my first post. I had my surgery on Tuesday and everything went good. I have a little bit of pain in my shoulder and in back and ribs but not to bad. I came home yesterday and had a good nights rest. I woke up this morning and put my glasses on and it seems like my vision is blurry? It was fine yesterday and fine after I came out of surgery on Tuesday so I am really nervous as to why today my vision is blurry. Has anyone experienced this?

Have not had this experience but call your doctor. There is always someone on

Are you a diabetic? Have you checked your blood sugar? I came home off my meds but check my blood sugar regularly. Blurred vision can occur if your blood glucose is high.

Call the doctor... there is always an emergency number!

Odd..... never heard that before. Hope it clears up right away. Don't be afraid to call the Hospital and ask. Maybe it is a side affect of surgery or anastisia (spelling???)

Congrats on getting banded! Best of Luck on your journey!

Agree with the others. Call your Dr ASAP. Keep us posted!

Did they put a patch behind your ear for nausea? If so remove it now! That is one of the side effects if tge patch. . .my nurse told me to watch for changes in vision, and if I had any to remove the patch!

I did have the patch but they took it off yesterday before I left the hospital. I am wondering if it is a side effect of the Roxicet that they gave me for the pain. It seems to be better now but I hadn't taken any of the pain med since 4 am this morning. I just took a dose now so we will see if it gets blurry again. I have horrible anxiety anyway so every little thing that is different freaks me out.

I'm a week out today. My vision has been a little wonkie since surgery. One of the meds they have me on has a blurry vision side effect though. Mine is very slight. If it was bad, I'd definitely call the emergency number.
