Crampy, intense achy feeling
For two days I've had this crampy, intense achy feeling across my belly button area. I have been trying for a week (literally) to have a TOTM cycle. I'm hoping that's all it is. I go to my surgeon tomorrow for my six week post-op appointment and I'm definitely going to ask. However, I've not been able to eat a thing without feeling irpy so I've been on liquids (again) in hopes I'll feel better and this pain will ease off. It's so hard to teach when you feel this way! I guess my question is this: when you had your first TOTM cycle after surgery, did you have problems? Did you hurt?
No experience but I hope you feel better soon. Smart idea to keep up with your fluids and relax the eating a bit.

Well my surgeon says what I'm feeling is probably not gastric bypass related...which is a relief. Now I am more inclined to think it is the TOTM stuff. I was on my period the day of surgery so with having my insides rearranged probably got me off schedule. On the bright side, the crampy feeling is subsiding. It makes sense that the surgery would wreak havoc with my hormones...it's not like they haven't had their share of chaos (I have PCOS) so since he's not concerned then I'm gonna try to relax.
Thanks...I just needed some encouragement!
