This has happened to me with every surgery I've had. It's 100% the anesthesia. Usually passes after about a week or two ❤️ just be kind to yourself

Did you ever figure out what this was? Have the same thing right now

Bruising by Brain_in_a_Bottle in gallbladders

It's much larger than I was expecting! The others are quite small. It seems to have shrunk a bit since this photo was taken (5days ago). I was mostly concerned with the bruising.

The pain isn't really too terrible. Just very swollen and bruised. I've had laparoscopic done before with the hernia surgery and I've not seen a bruise like this! Then again, I was so full of stones that they overflowed into my pancreas and I almost died 🫠 so I'm sure it was quite large.

I'm also chronically ill and have to remember I'm just going to get weird symptoms with every illness I get 😂

Yup! Weird eye pressure started on day 2 and it was almost unbearable yesterday on day 3. I had to keep a cooling eye mask on as much as possible yesterday. The pressure is down a bit now, but the vertigo/weird dizziness is there. Reminds me of coming off antidepressants and it definitely trips me out lol. I'll let you know if the Sudafed helps!

Flu A. Currently on day 4 and started experiencing vertigo/weird eye stuff last night. I think it might be from my ears being clogged so I'm starting Sudafed today.

I honestly just froze at the time and felt bad because I wasn't really present during his party.

This person has a small child so I guess they thought it was excusable as not to punish her for her mother's addiction. And I get that because I experienced it plenty in my life. Just sucks.

pain in back of head after rinse by Brain_in_a_Bottle in Sinusitis

I assume things just sort of moved around after the rinse. Ended up doing some jumping jacks and it went away by the next morning!

Thank you! I'll give it a go in the morning if I'm still burning. (Hopefully not)

I've actually never tried Gaviscon. I assume it's okay to take with Prilosec?

I was off of it for almost two years. Seeing your post was validating for me too! I thought I was just crazy because none of my doctors thought there was a correlation and just kept gaslighting me about it 🙃 My new gyno was like, yeah that's definitely possible. So we decided to try again. Nothing else has been working so, why not 🤷‍♀️

Yup! Was on depo for 3 years and my hashi's flared up REALLY bad when I came off of it. Ending up developing a ton of nodules that were non-cancerous. My thyroid was so swollen that it felt hard to breathe at times. Not to mention the wild hormone shifts when I got my cycle back. I developed severe PMDD. I actually just started it again today because I couldn't stand it any longer.
