Can't Sleep



Recommended Posts

Well here it use, 2;00 and I'm up. I take a sleep aid, and since my surgery, it works very badly. Anyone else have a hard time sleeping since surgery?

It's 4.30am here and I have been awake for an hour. It is unfortunately part of my new 'normal' ( there's that word again).

I'm 6 months out it will get better I didn't sleep normal for a month but then again there really isn't a normal for me I'm a third shift 911 dispatcher so I'm lucky when I get to sleep.

I also was taking meds before and after surgery for sleep. It took quite awhile for my body to adjust back to them and help me sleep better. The first couple of months I would wake up at crazy hours! Hang in there it gets better! Good luck.

      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! 😞
