Has anyone else experience cold shivers after being sleeved? Recently, I have been getting the cold shivers attack that go across my whole body. They usually last about thirty minutes and it feels like it starts around my stomach area. Once I throw-up I feel better. I am currently nothing by mouth so it is not anything I am eating or drinking.

If so, is there anything I can do to do stop the shivers?

I've been super cold since surgery on Monday, but I think it's bc ive dropped 17lbs and maybe the blood thinner that was given to me. I have been lucky and not thrown up at all since surgery. I hope you get go feeling better:-)

I had cold shivers for about a week after the surgery, I think it has to do with the meds and the fact that you are burning fat so fast! I still get them once in a while (4 weeks today) and it's when I loose weight

I was cold and sat wrapped up in a blanket and turned up the furnace for the first 2 months post op. I just could not seem to feel warm. This is caused by your body and the changes that are taking place. Mine has finally gone away but then the weather is also getting warmer so whatever the reason I am happy

I had the same teeth chattering and cold shivers for about a week after surgery. I have always been extremely hot (probably partly due to my weight) but the last few days I have had to turn the air conditioner up to 79 degrees and today in Walmart I was freezing. :ph34r:

I'm 14 months out and live in sweaters and my fleece jacket. Immediately post-op I think I was freezing due to metabolic changes induced by surgery, but now I think I'm cold because I've lost all my "insulation." My feet and hands are always freezing and the car heater is usually on high all the time.

Same here, 10 months out and cold most all the time. i'm hoping summer will be here soon.

I think being cold is something we just have to live with, not sure it's ever gonna go away.

My car heater is set to 80 all the time...hands still cold, rings slide around my fingers, bugs me...lol

Thank god for my hot flashes at times...lol every little bit of warmth helps....lol

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
