Immediately following surgery I have a thick mucus like discharge for a good 3 months... I was checked out by several doctors and was told I was healthy and not to worry. However I also had a bladder and kidney infection for over 3 months that caused discharge and blood in my urine.

Thank you so much for posting this!! I've been going crazy and feeling so gross and unclean! I had my surgery 5 months ago and the discharge still has not stopped. No UTI's or infections, no itching. Strong odor at times so I've just been using anti-bacterial cleaners. I hope this clears up soon, because I hate it, but I'm happy that I'm not the only one this has happened to! Thank you ladies for making me feel better! :)

You are given a strong antibotic right after surgery and possibly another load prior to being discharged. It is not uncommon for women to come down with yeast infections because it destroys all the good little germs that keep this under control. If you are a diabetic it will almost be a given.

Tucks pads, Dermoplast anti-bacterial spray, panty-liners and a good cream will help with relief .

I see nobody dared mention the 'roids. Those suckers are evil.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
