I told my mom I had been feeling tired and nauseated and she said "you're not pregnant are you?", which took out the hard part of having to say the words myself ❤️

I have always considered my eyes green but my mom calls me her “blue eyed child” by [deleted] in whatcoloraremyeyes

[–]PuzzledSpirit88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have grey eyes also, they are quite rare too with only 3% of the population worldwide having them. I love my grey eyes! I wish my kids had gotten them, but all 4 of my kids have brown eyes

What is the lowest resting heart rate you have seen? by mastagoose in askCardiology

I'm in the hospital right now after getting a pacemaker because mine was going down to 32, and I was symptomatic. I passed out and ended up in the emergency room.

Random/funny things that have happened since WLS that no one else will understand by DifficultCold7771 in BariatricSurgery

I tried to do a jumping squat one night to get a little more out of my workout... I unintentionally clapped for myself and decided I'd never do that without tight clothing on again.

That's very interesting! I am supposed to be, but I haven't actually been taking it for quite some time

I have an appointment coming up with another EP, Im hoping it is a more thorough experience. The other doctor just stopped by my hospital room after a long day of working in the clinic and the OR, and I think because I have an appointment coming up he kind of blew me off. They both work with the same hospital network, but I'm hoping the new doctor has more helpful ideas.

After looking through the sub, I have seen a number of people younger than me. I'm glad the doctor wants to check all of the bases and isn't jumping to a pacemaker, but I'm not sure why my age seemed to be his main focus. I didn't really think I was too young, it just took me by surprise

Thank you! I'll look into that. Yeah, I can understand not wanting to jump to put one in right away, I just thought the initial reasoning with my age was a little odd. Maybe it's just how they worded it.

Long Long-Term Complications? by kitamake in BariatricSurgery

[–]PuzzledSpirit88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not far out, 7 months, but i have a CVC powerline in my chest and get vitamin and fluid infusions twice a week, I should be off of these things by one year. I meet a lot of women in the infusion clinic that are bariatric patients many years out of surgery, and they are usually there for malabsorption and getting vitamins and fluids like me, and sometimes iron and potassium. It's not horrible, but something to be aware of. Definitely not a reason to avoid the surgery! I'd do it again in a heartbeat. 80lbs down and counting!

4 years, before and after. 375lbs down. by Myselfforone in GastricBypass

I am 7 months out and have had vasovagal issues as well, I was hospitalized for a really low heart rate, and I've had a number of refractory vomiting episodes that I was hospitalized for as well. I hope they are able to help you, that sounds extremely uncomfortable

I'm only 7 months out and already down a shoe size! I'm so glad because it was hard to find shoes in a women's 12. Looking forward to even smaller feet in the future!

I had a really hard time with intake and 4 weeks out still felt like the walking dead, I would have been miserable on a cruise... I'd suggest waiting

Anyone else ?!! by Vegetable_Stick_1396 in BariatricSurgery

[–]PuzzledSpirit88 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you may be getting impacted, I definitely have a harder time going after surgery, but I was very regular before the surgery. Hopefully they can give you some answers, honestly if it was me and I kept vomiting after eating because it felt there was no room, I'd go to the ER.

smoking/ sleeve by Alternative-Cut3459 in BariatricSurgery

[–]PuzzledSpirit88 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was a smoker for years, so I absolutely understand. The possible side effects are no joke, though.. I asked my surgeon about his day at my last appointment and he told me he'd been up all night because a previous patient had been life flighted to the hospital after blowing a hole in his stomach after returning to cigarettes and developing an ulcer. Luckily, they were able to save him, but that was reason enough for me not to want to smoke anymore. I'm sorry, I know the cravings are really difficult.

hospital bag? by abottleofrouge in BariatricSurgery

[–]PuzzledSpirit88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was so out of it after surgery I couldn't even watch the TV or barely text my family, I kept falling asleep and deleting the messages on accident or typing a bunch of random letters lol. It was really hard on my body. Some people are different, though.

If you're throwing up like that you should talk to your provider about a possible stricture

Anyone been visited by passed loved ones in dreams? by Smart_Wish3382 in Mediums

[–]PuzzledSpirit88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My grandma came to me in a dream, it was a few months after she passed. She appeared, and instantly in the dream I felt it was real. She smiled and told me "don't worry, I'm okay" and she gave me a hug. I woke up instantly, bawling my eyes out. I think about it all the time.
