    Default Sleeve and Lyme's Disease

    Has anyone had Lyme’s disease after sleeve surgery? I am 2 months post op and still having issues with eating. I am still having problems with dehydration and protein intake.
    I am concerned about nausea and diarrhea from antibiotics and what meds I can take for the itchy rash that just developed.

    Not as soon afterward as you are.. but I did have a severe lasting sinus infection about 6 months out. It took 4 courses of antibiotics to figure it out.
    Our stomachs sometimes don't absorb the meds the way they are intended...they slip right through without dissolving enough in our stomachs. I finally got my doc to try a liquid suspension and it worked. You may wish to consider asking your doc for the liquid version of what they want to give you.
    Best NSV - fitting on a kid's amusement park ride with my 4 yr old grandson!
    CFIDS =Chronic Fatigue Syndrome) Also dx with post-bariatric reactive hypoglycemia; and chronic gastritis (both sleeve complications). Permanently disabled.
    Start weight 335, down to 218, up during gastritis. Have accepted there is no way to lose it with my hypoglycemia. Current weight 260. Currently doing 10 day sleeve reset and determined to get back down to my post surgical weight or close to it.
