Guest guest Posted October 30, 2003 Report Share Posted October 30, 2003 RnY 06/03/02. From 328 down to 144 (as of Monday, anyway). Since surgery, my periods returned to a normal cycle immediately, but much heavier with severe cramping my middle days. Since January, I have had terrible pain with ovulation. I've always had trouble with my feet swelling, but this week my abdomen is swollen as well! I always heard people complaining about bloating, but it never happened to this fat girl! I always increase my water for the week before my period, and yesterday I even took a diuretic. What can I safely take for these symptoms? I am dying here! (BTW, bowel movement is normal, no problem there). My doctor is kind of learning as she goes, so even though I plan to see her about beginning some form of birth control to stop ovulation - I still need to know what is safe/effective for me as a WLS patient, both for ovulation and for symptoms like bloating and cramping (she is prone to prescribe NSAIDS, which I try to avoid!). Sorry it got so long, but your input is appreciated! Mendi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
