Did anyone experience vision problems Post op?



Recommended Posts

Yes I did, When I was doing my pre-opt two week liquid diet, I could barely read my computer screen. everything was blurry. Not sure why thought it may be a blood sugar issue. The problem went away not long after my surgery.

Were you given a scopolamine patch to put on before surgery (helps with nausea) and wear for a few days? That will cause blurriness as well.

It can also be from low Vitamin levels. Hope you can figure it out. Take your Vitamins just in case!

Yes. I have the scopolamine patch. I spoke with the nurse and she said to discontinue using jt

It's very likely that. It's a common side effect. It should resolve fairly soon, if you've removed it.

I had blurred vision at first, but it went away after day 5 post op.

      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! 😞
