I wake up just about every day feeling like I've been hit by a truck.  I am 2.5 weeks post-op.  I called my surgeons office today and they said that it is probably my blood pressure meds.  So I took my BP and it was 100/50 and now I'm off all my BP medications.  Isn't that GREAT!!!!  The only pill I am taking now is thyroid.....I went from taking 8-10 perscriptions a day to just this one little pill.  I'm pumped about that.....That alone is going to pay for itself.

AWESOME!!!!

I am on thyroid medicine as well.  Not sure if your surgeon or regular PCP is monitoring your levels.  However, you might want to get this checked every couple of months - as I lost weight, my prescription has changed as well.

Revision from Sleeve to DS (with re-Sleeve) on 10/10/17. Slow and steady ...

Interestingly enough, my script hasn't changed at all and I"ve lost over 100lbs.  I had labs done yesterday, actually, and my TSH and Free T4  were still normal.

Way to go. Looking forward to October 10 when I see my PCP and see if I can ditch my BP Cholesterol and diuretic meds. Already dumped my diabetic meds.
