Hello,

I'm officially one week post op today and went to the salon to get my hair done. I don't know if it was the lights, the smock or what but about halfway through I started to sweat, felt a little nauseous and felt my blood pressure shoot up. My stylist brought me some ice Water and I sat there for a couple of minutes and then it went away. It happened about 30 minutes later as I was about to leave.

I just got home, took my temperature and it was 96.1. I'm a little too young for the change in life so I'm hoping it is related to the surgery.

Did anyone experience this after surgery? I have an appointment with my doctor tomorrow so I will address with her, I just thought I would see if I'm not alone on this one.

Thanks!

You are not alone. I experienced the same thing. Get some Protein in you when that happens. I experience hot flashes when I eat and I was sleeved on May 21st. Hang in there. It will get better.

For the first 2 weeks post op every time I tried to get ready this happened I profusely sweated. I think part of it was dehydration because not much made my hr go to the 140s also your hormones are going crazy right now so that has a lot to do with it too

I'm 2 weeks out almost and do the same thing. I just had my hair done this week and my stylist could tell when one was coming on. She would turn the fans on. Hoping this doesn't last long.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
