  1. Fainting spells

    KaePre replied to snochick2005's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
    Hello, I am 9 months post op Gastric Bypass i lost 131lbs and I as well have been dealing with fainting and passing out when standing from and sitting position, lying position and even from standing and walking too long and I have been dealing with these issues since i was One Month Post Op...I had blood work done everything was normal and just recently I was told I have Orthostatic Hypotention and was put on one medication that DID NOT help and actually made me worse the other medication I am currently taking seems to not help at all which makes me think that it might be more than orthostasis...I wanted to know if anyone has any recommendations as far as remedies that have helped them. I stay hydrated and have up'd my protein intake and still nothing seems to help.
