Hey how are you doing. Did the temp go down?




Hi ! Yes thankfully so. I was extremely constipated which was causing the severe pains & I guess fever since I was so uncomfortable. I told milk of magnesia and I'm better but scared it happens again

Well im 38 days after surgery. (RNY)And i did have Constipation. But easily resolved. I am still in soft foods. But doing really well. Yesterday i had 100.1 low grade fever. And my dr said not yo worry. I am not constipated and not dehydrated. And everything else look good. No fver today. This is hard. But i guess its all worth it. Lets keep in touch. We have close surgery dates. Have a good one.

I ran a low grade fever for several days once I finally got home from the hospital. The other thing to check is your resting hear rate. I had an elevated heart rate as well during that time (about 110 bpm). Those were the two things we were supposed to call our doc about - if either got over 100. Eventually both came down, but I know the feeling...it's a bit scary so soon after surgery.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
