Before the op I didn’t have periods for years now I do.
Holy hell I have MAJOR pmt hormones mega cranky irritated b*tch syndrome!
They only finally settled down and become regular as clockwork end of last year so nov till today I can honestly set my watch by then the week before I am a major pain the in butt everything annoys me and I would happily kill people in a heartbeat!
I like being a normal woman who doesn’t have issues with having them and all the bad bad crap I had to deal with from not having them for so many years but a side effect of this op I could do without is these raging hormones!
Anyone else noticed a increase in monthly raging crazy since the op?
It could be totally normal just been years since I experienced them to know lol

I was started on an anti-depressant after having my son because of raging hormones (post partum? Perhaps) made me an intolerable witch. I gained more weight on the med. Now I am more angry b/c I am fat. I hope to wean myself off of them once I loose the weight.

Evening Primrose Oil is supposed to help with PMS if you are into more holistic approaches.

It is worth a shot.. .read up on it :)

Another nurse friend told me about it. She used to take it and swears by it for PMS. I guess it is rather pricey (??). I remember she said when she didn't want to pay anymore and her husband eagerly forked over the money because he noticed the change in her when she wasn't taking it. LOL

I used to be very stressed out about work and now I'm not. Stress always led to overeating and so I worried about how I would handle it after the surgery - but it hasn't been an issue so far (7.5 weeks after surgery). My sister thinks the surgery affected my hormones and I am different (more relaxed and patient).

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
