    Default Almost finished with requirements for surgery.

    So, I just got home from my Dr and had a ekg and one blood test my pcp wanted. I'm all clear except for my last nutrition appt on the 20th. They will send for approval and set my date along with my pre-op appt. I'm looking at the beginning of January.

    I have one lingering problem, but my Dr
    seems to not be worried. I have a serious sweating problem. I'm wondering if anyone here had these problem before losing weight and was corrected after surgery? I'm past menopause and seems to not be exercised induced. It's possible it's partly anxiety induced and happens 3-4 times a day.

    Thanks!

    Im not sure but I wonder if it still might be some hormone stuff even if you think you're past menopause... those hot flushes can go on a while. In terms of sweating generally, once I had lost all my weight I just didn't really sweat anymore at all. And I used to sweat heaps! I have to a pretty heavy workout now to get a glow on! Good luck to you :-)

    I used to sweat a lot before surgery. I don't sweat nearly as much now. Only if I am working out. My sweating is much less. I used to be the one with the embarrassing wet pits all the time no matter how much deo/anti perspirant I wore.

    Yep I was Sweaty Mc Sweatface before surgery - but not anymore. My head used to melt at the thought of any physical exertion but now not at all. I think being 60kg lighter has something to do with it in my case ;-) My poor body. I can't believe that it used to have to heave the weight of an extra person around all day every day. No wonder I was tired!

    I figure I should wait and see if it corrects itself after some weight loss. 12 days till my last nutrition, so shouldn't be but 2 more months top! I'm ready and apprehensive all at the same time. Thanks for all the input, it's greatly appreciated!

    I forgot to say, I had surgical menopause at 40, I'm now 53, so I'm not sure. I took hormones for a few years. I literally will bust out sweating. It's not exercise induced, because I will just be sitting watching tv and it happens. I'm hoping to go cold. I can put in a coat lol
