Last night I looked at my toungue and discovered I have developed thrush yuck!!!

Did a little research online and apparently its caused by all the antibiotics pumped into you during and after surgery. Waiting for the nurse to call me back from surgeons office to see if they can just phone me in a prescription or something. Feels so gross and uncomfortable!

Please tell me I'm not the only one that this has happened to. Its so gross and embarrassing!

I had it. I didn't think of calling the doctor. I just scraped my tongue in the morning and at nite before I brushed. Eventually it went away.

Apparently it's pretty common after large doses of antibiotics. Surgeons office phoned in a prescription for me right away and I am swishing with something the consistency of raw scrambled eggs 4 times a day for a few days, yuck!

Funny thing is I was commenting the other day on how great and clean and white my teeth looked because I haven't eaten solid food in 3 weeks. Ironic...

Yeah it's definitely no fun at all I got no sleep for the 2 weeks after my surgery because I itched so bad! It was a nightmare and not only did I have a yeast infection all over my skin but I also was allergic to the dermabond they used to close my incisions and so all of my incisions were red and swollen too!

It's not really raw scrambled eggs LOL It just looks and feels like it. Swish and spit 4 times a day. It's nasty.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
