I do but I have an auto immune issue that causes it. Use a preservative-free eye drops at least three times a day and if they are worse overnight (gritty on waking) use a gel type eye drop.

Does anyone have dry eyes

Sent from my U693CL using BariatricPal mobile app

I had it before my surgery, and do not have it anymore. Weird?

Not necessarily weird. Dry eyes can be caused by my things, you may have changed medications or supplements since surgery, eating different foods, added different supplements such as fish oil capsules (which are suggested for dry eyes), you may not be sitting in front of a blowing fan, change in heating perhaps? A dry heat could cause dry eyes.

Not only has that changed for the better, but I am off almost all meds except 2. I was on 13 prior to my surgery.

My eyes burn and my whole body itches. I think it’s some kind of reaction to the pain meds (oxycodine)

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
