Has anyone had some blurry vision after surgery. I just got new glasses back in Feb 2011 and things were just fine. Well, then I had my VSG surgery this past Tuesday Aug 2nd and now I'm having a hard time with blurry vision.

You know its funny you say that because the same thing happen to me. I could see better without my glasses the first day or two. But now things are back to normal.

I had some issues also after surgery but at my 6 month check up I was low on Vitamin A which is essentail for the eyes. I am now on a supplement and will have it rechecked at my one yr followup. Make sure that you are taking all of your Vitamins.< /p>

Yes! Scared the heck outa me! For about 5 days after surgery I could not see anything up close. My friends were texting me to see how I was and I couldn't answer them, I had my mom just call them. I was praying my sight would come back bc I do hair and nails and I had always had 20 20 vision. Thankfully 2 days b4 surgery it returned.

I had all kinds of blurry vision, turned out my eyes improved by a whole number in each eye. Doc attributes it to stable blood sugars. Wait it out if you can so you don't spend too much in glasses:)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
