Question..has Anyone Experienced This?



Recommended Posts

Ok I am almost 6 months out. I was cheering at my daughter's soccer game and they won the championship game. I jump up, raise my arms above my head, scream, and begin to feel faint. I sat down immediately and got better. Anyone experience this? I haven't. I am afraid it's my heart..weakened maybe. I sure hope not. Anyway..I plan on going to my PCP to check on it. Anyone else experience this?

I'm about 10 weeks and get dizzy sometimes.

I'm sure you thought about enough hydration and consistent Vitamins?

I honestly hadn't thought about hydration status . That is probably it..I wasn't on my normal schedule. Thanks for the reminder!? I have been very consistent with my Vitamins

My surgeon said dizziness is either low blood pressure or not enough Protein. In my case it was low blood pressure.

Mine, too was blood pressure. I was happily taking off of one of my bp medications.

Ok, this will sound crazy but I have had a problem for years, when I raise my arms over my head I get extremely dizzy and/or feel faint. My pcp, nor my neurologist have figured out the problem. I just make sure that i don't hang curtains, etc anymore. I don't have any advice for you, just letting you know I have something similar that isn't sleeve related. Let me know if you figure it out!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
