I had the gastric sleeve Monday (1/29) and I really feel ok, my major issue after the surgery is I got my period and I haven't had my period in 3 years due to my birth control and now I can not tell if my bloating is from that or from my actual stomach that just got proved and prodded. I also can not hold any Protein down, I can drink Water but protein has been a problem. Any suggestions?

Same here-I got mine the next morning at the hospital. The nurses said it was totally normal. Hang in there! The bloating is probably the swelling from surgery. Mine took a while to go down but once it did, the odd lumps and bumps post surgery in my stomach went away as well. Try sipping Bone Broth. I bought all this Protein power before surgery and I couldn’t stomach any of t post. Only thing that didn’t turn my stomach was chicken bone broth. It’ll get better!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
