Yes...they were giving me an anticoagulant post surgery to avoid clots. Got it the hospital. Because of weight loss I am off pain meds for knee...ibuprofen. my period is now the lightest it has ever been.

Mine started the day I got home from the hospital. It has been the worst one I have had in years with horrible cramps. It's no fun, especially since I was already in pain.

I schedule my surgery specifically a week after I knew I would have my cycle, but then two days after I had the surgery I got it again. The pain I felt was from the cramps not the surgery, it made me bloat and retain Water. I'm not worried, but a little frustrated as I gained weight bc of this. I now I'll be fine, but would like to see some sort or instant result.

Got mine 4 days after surgery and like the others it was horrible and dragged on and on. Mine never lasted longer than 2 to 3 days before. This one lasted almost 8 days. Ugh, blood thinners suck!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
