Menstraul Cycle?!?!



Recommended Posts

I am 2 days out (I have surgery scheduled for Wednesday 7/31/13).

Let me give you a little background. I have had my tubes tied in 2010 and a Uterine Ablation in 2012 so I haven't had a period in over a year. Now I am assuming becuase of my diet it has my body in a state of chaos and I have started spoting.

I have emailed my doctor, but now I am stressing that they won't be able to do the surgery if I am on my period? Any advice??

They will do it. I will likely be on mine too.

They will do it, I was on mine as well.. it was super embarrassing for me because of the catheter, but that was the least of my worries once I was on the feel good meds :) You will be fine!

Do they do the catheter when you are awake? Does it hurt when they put it in?

I also had tubes tied, ablation, and last year was put on a medicine whose side effect is no periods...and I started spotting today......hopefully that's all.....I wonder if it's anxiety about surgery or if it's the small weight loss.

Good news is this won't stop the surgery. Good luck on Wed.!

They put mine in once I was out, i don't remember it being put in. When they took it out it didn't hurt, it just felt weird.

I am sure it's anxiety... I can stop thinking about this.

Thanks

I had my surgery last Thursday and today I started spotting. I figure it's just the stress my body is going under after the procedure.

Not everyone has a catheter, either. I didn't, nor did I have a drain.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
