I had my sleeve 10/5/17 and had a second surgery the same day to stop a bleed. So a 3-day hospital stay, but only gas pains and those in my shoulders. I did get two units of blood.
At home, I find I cannot tolerate the sweet taste of protein whey, even the "unflavored". So working on being creative to be sure I get my protein or close every day. So grateful to have thin soups flavored with bone broth, (Something now one said hardly ever)
My main issue seems to be tiredness; I did see my doctor last week, and he said the complication may have increased it. I had a few muscle cramps, so have added my prescription of potassium back, and hopeing that relieves the weariness. Not complaining, just hoping for some suggestions.
I also have some "bathroom" issues, although not the typical one: I previously had colon cancer, so only about 5 inches of Lg intestine (TMI)
left). I found that during the pre op liquids, same issue, so I'm thinking once more "normal" things are added back to my diet, this will clear up.
Thanks!
Annie
