Hi guys! I'm new to Bariatric Pals. I had surgery November 25, 2015 at Montefiore Medical Center. I believe I might be suffering from a hunger headache but I'm doing my best to keep up with liquid diet.

Hey! I had conversion band to bypass surgery also at Montefiore medical center in the Bronx! My surgeon was Dr Choi. Yours? Mr surgery was Nov 16th. Would you like to chat?

I'm about 1 week post-op and head hunger is definitely a problem. I am also still INCREDIBLY sore and in pain, enough to not be able to go to work. Ugh. I also got my monthly cycle when it wasn't due, and have HORRIFIC cramps. Really regretting this decision. Anyone else having regrets?

Hi. It's normal to wonder if it's the right decision. I know I did the same for a few months. I was scared since I never been in a hospital for anything and the thought of a surgery that was going to change my body. But it was definitely the best decision I've ever made in my life. I was sleeved on 5/29/15. I'm from NYC . I added a recent pic so you can see the changes. Hope to chat again. post-244766-14585134387614_thumb.jpg

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!!
