I swear ever since I had my surgery 6 weeks ago I her been so absent minded amongst other things!

I accidentally took my BC twice this morning! I took next sundays BC! I bought a pill box so I can easily just take my pills without having to sort it all every morning and without thinking about it after I took my pills I looked at my BC package and saw it said Sunday and I was like oh I didn't take it and then after I took it realized omg yes I did! This is next Sundays!

Anyone have any ideas what I should do???? I have been on the pill for a very long time and this is the first time doing this! Uuuuggg!

Thanks in advance!!!

Very early on I was told that I would need to find a new BC method because the pill will no longer be effective post surgery due to my new stomach it would no longer be as effective. So I changed it to the IUD before I had surgery.

Thanks ladies. I actually have my tubes tied and take the seaonique pill so I can skip my periods. I was just worried taking 2 pills would make me sick and I wasn't sure what to do.

I know my subject isn't Really sleeve related topic. Thanks for the advice!

I don't think two pills will make you sick. I have a habit of forgetting to take mine and my doctor tells me as long as it is within forty-eight hours of the missed one, to just take two. I have never been sick or had any problems. Of course, as with all non-medical advice, your mileage may vary.

Because of problems with my hyperplasia, my doctor was trying to get my period under control after my blood transfusion. She had me take 4 bc pills a day, for 2 weeks straight and I never got sick. You'll be fine!

      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!!

      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'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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.
