Symptoms you were surprised about after surgery.



Recommended Posts

So we all knew about dumping syndrome hopefully... what’s something you weren’t aware of? Personally I developed tachycardia and a fluttering/dizziness of my heart. I hope that this is temporary but I wore a heart monitor last weekend. I hope to have results soon.

I am also wondering g has anyone else noticed this symptom or others like it?

Any suggestions?

I wore a holter monitor before surgery and was diagnosed with pvc's. It's not considered dangerous, but is scary to have my heart beat extra hard.

Best wishes to you!

Sorry you're experiencing that. No, I haven't had anything like that.

I got dizzy and lightheaded when I stood up or moved around too quickly. Luckily that only lasted a couple months.

      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! 😞
