Period Question



Recommended Posts

So if my period comes when I'm scheduled for surgery...and with my luck it will happen lol...can I wear a tampon during surgery? Will I be naked? Thus making a pad not an option...

I got mines as soon as I got to the hospital. It wasn't bad because it was just starting. The nurse let me leave my undies and a pad on until they were ready for me.

The surgery caused my period to start (apparently not uncommon) but I could barely go pee let alone use a pad/underwear the nurse just told me not to worry about it and focus on healing ( they changed my sheets every time I got up and cleaned the bathroom after I was done)

Mine is due the day before surgery. The first few days are usually pretty light, but I'm concerned that things will get heavier after the surgery when it's hard to get in and out of that hospital bed. Was that a problem for anyone?

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
