Has anyone else noticed any memory loss since surgery?

I don't know if it is related, but in the last few months forget a lot & I have been feeling totally stunned. :)

My husband I now emailing me his daily itinerary so I don't forget what he has told me.

Are you sure you're getting enough Protein and taking a good multi Vitamin?

Then you should go see your PCM. If you're getting adequate nutrition you shouldn't be fuzzy that way.

make sure you get a good b-complex Vitamin it helps.. and is essential in our diets for memory and other things as well.. if that doesn't help.. i think you should go see the Dr. you might be lacking in various vitamins.. or it could be something else.. either way it wouldnt hurt to get it checked out.. Good Luck to you

It could be "normal" too...perimenopausal etc. But I really would get it checked out if it were me...UNLESS you are under a lot of stress and tuning your husband out? (coping mechanism?)

If you are getting a good quality and amount of Vitamins then maybe it is just that you have a lot on your mind. We were banded around the same time and I know that having the band has consumed a lot of my thoughts. I am concerned about what I am eating and will eat tomorrow, how much exercise I've done, how much weight I have lost, do I need a fill?, am I doing everything right?, is my band OK, etc. It is the first thing I think about in the morning and the last thing at night. All of that has caused me to drop the ball on my everyday tasks. I am hoping that soon I will not be so consumed with my band.

But yes, make sure you are getting in enough nutrients with food and supplements.

      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'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
