It's my one month surgiversary tomorrow and UGH, I just gotta rant.

I felt fine -- just tired! -- and was losing steadily until a few days before my first post-op period. Then my sinuses swelled up again -- they had gotten SO MUCH BETTER after surgery. Then the headaches. Then I couldn't eat even half of the amount of soft food (like tuna) I was able to eat the day before. Then just a bite of stuff (yogurt) came up and I had to switch to liquids.

That improved, after I saw my surgeon and he told me to drink cold liquids and to come get an x-ray if that didn't help. But it took days to be back to normal.

And… most irritating of all… now I have reflux. I didn't pre-TOM, unless I had something acidic like tomatoes. I was having no real side effects at all!

But now, a week after it's all over, and the reflux is still here -- despite taking a PPI twice a day -- and my little sleeve is more temperamental, and my sinuses are swollen so I have to take a nose spray to breathe at night, my throat hurts, my voice is hoarse and tight, and my ears are throbbing, and my weight is fluctuating 2 pounds a day in Water and NOT dropping.

*fumes*

I don't blame the surgery… don't regret it at all. But I DEFINITELY blame my cursed ladyparts for screwing it all up. @!!#@!!$##$@

Owwwww!

Bummer! Maybe your sinuses are playing up because you're run down. I think at one month out I was still getting tired really easily just from the anesthetic.

Try to take things easy and relax, rest as much as you can until you're feeling better.
