Question:
I have depression and take medication daily. Surgery scheduled for July 31, 2001.

Has anyone had RNY and had trouble absorbing depression medication (i.e. Zoloft), then had to battle depression more than before surgery?    — Jill A. (posted on June 22, 2001)

I had surgery on 5/14 and take celexa for depression. I have noticed that I'm becoming very anxious lately and seem to be having a harder time with depression. I have to admit that I'm also having a lot of personal problems so who can really say if that's really it. I plan to call my phschiatrist very soon. Good luck to you. -41 lbs
