Tmi Warning; Menstrual Cycle



Recommended Posts

I think my first few cycles before surgery were pretty heavy, but now they have started to lighten up a lot. Not sure if that's normal but I'm not complaining!!

I got mine the morning of surgery....the docs were so kind and thoughtful' date=' they made no big deal just told me to leave my unders and bottoms on...they removed them after I was out, so not so humiliating for me...And allowed me a shower as soon as I woke from recovery to take care of things...[/quote']

I too was on my period during the procedure...they left my undies on me too! They just warned me they might be discolored by the yellow stuff they rub all over.

I've actually had two periods since my surgery. I had one as soon as I got home from the hospital and then one starting earlier this week. I asked my doctor about it and he said it was due to the anesthesia. I hope I get back to normal soon.

I got a surprise and very heavy period a week post op.

My husband and son have been my biggest irritant when it comes to food...they go buy cakes Cookies brownies and crap and come home and sit and make mmmmm mmmmm mmmmm sounds....feels almost deliberate sometimes... I'm getting good at ignoring bad behavior

That is beyond rude. Just picture them as grunting piggies and then laugh.

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

      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! 😞
