I was banded 5/31, yesterday my boyfriend noticed while holding my hand that I was shaking, I didn't notice til he mentioned it, then this morning I was shaking so bad I could barely hold my papers, my boss even noticed it without even touching me. Its not only my hands but I feel it in my arms too. Its kind of like a shivery shake. I'm not cold, its 82* here .... Anyone else expeirence this?

I had a headache real bad during my preop diet, but haven't had one postop thankfully. I see the Dr tomorrow for my 2wk follow up, ill ask him then, I am thinking its sugar related, because I drank a cup of coffee at work (i rarely ever drink coffee with REAL sugar) & it helped, now tonight, its back again. :(

Are you getting enough calories? I get that when my blood sugar drops (I am not diabetic). Remember this can be serious. If you are that shaky you could be dangerous to drive! If you faint while driving that could be a disaster. Yes I am being alarmist but you don't want to pass out while driving. I know I've had times where I would'nt have been safe to drive.

That's good to know. I can understand the excitement to have oatmeal have what you have been through. Keep up the good work and I hope all the pain goes away soon. Take care! You will do great!!!

I was having headaches too, I finally figured out it was the caffeine (or lack of).

You are not suppose to stop caffeine, you have to ween off slowly.

I miss my Dt Dr Pepper.

I spoke to my Dr about my shakes today, he didn't seem concerned & said its possible that my body is trying to get used to fewer calories & less sugar. I'm not diabetic, so that's not the case. He said if it gets worse to see my pcp.

Getting off of Diet soda really gives me the shakes.. I so miss my Diet Pepsi Wild Cherry. I was soooo addicted!!
