in sept 2023 i had a gastric bypass and have lost over 100 lbs in a bit over a year. while I was prepared for the physical changes, post surgery and my body changing what I have been most surprised about is my emotional mental health changes.

I can’t take any Bisphosphonates because I had Gastric Bypass. I don’t know what to do. Is there anyone out there that been on Prolia and can’t take a Bisphosphonate? I would love to hear what you took in place. TY!

I had a gastric bypass done in 2018 and my weight has been stable for a few years now. Every time I go in with any issue, they see the TSH and it's like an 'aha, that's the problem' and they just don't look too closely at anything else.

Just to give you all the info, I had a gastric bypass around 20 years ago and despite that have gained around 3 stone over the last 3 years which I am desperate to shift.

I have malabsorption due to a gastric bypass about 20 years ago. Many thanks 😊

If you remember I have had a gastric bypass and my absorption isn’t good. Vitamin D came back in the normal range though still isn’t great. It looks like I’m going to have to self administer B12 so if I could get some advice about where to buy some I’d be really grateful.

I feel like I've been left with little advice other than I'm now being told to have a gastric bypass. I don't over eat so it wouldn't help but my endocrinologist doesn't believe me, it's incredibly frustrating. Can a fatty liver cause damage to my actual liver? What can be done to help it?

It was not heart or lungs. 3 weeks ago gastric bypass refused at point of surgery because of HR and they noticed breathlessness on walking. Went to GP about breathlessness, they didn’t examine me just said it was AF.

I had a quadruple heart bypass in 2007 , when I was 63 , which just happened to be my birthday!! , my birthday again today and an 84 , never had a problem so far , so I guess there is no simple answer to your question.Baz.

Hi, I've just joined the community & am interested if others have similar experience as I will cover here. As an intro I was training for a charity cycle ride in Malawi 2 years ago and in summary developed symptoms that resulted in an emergency transfer from the GP to hospital whereupon I was diagnosed

Ever since my bypass surgery i have had blood tests that show my blood sugar levels to be increased , I even had a text from GP surgery telling me I was pre diabetic and to join a lifestyle program. My GP was as shocked as I was and ordered another blood test that fell below the pre diabetic level ..

Good morning all. I had a Triple Heart Bypass and Mitral Valve Repair and now have also been diagnosed with Heart Failure. Before my surgery I had a Laminectomy for Severe Spinal Stenosis. Unfortunately this failed so after a couple of months I was back to square one with my pain with the added complication

I’m 6 months today since my heart bypass and after feeling super positive and happy I was still here ,I now seem to have spiraled into feeling really down and questioning every decision I have made in life. I’m really struggling to cope and it seems that everyone just expects me to still be the person

I had a triple heart bypass ,4 October 2 007 discharged 8th As I already a very strong healthy heart to begin with I had a bypass due to three narrowing of a blood vessel leading into the heart so they took a mammory, vessel from my chest to do the job but they did not stop the heart so I made a good
