I've posted in here several times about the equilibrium (vertigo like) issues I share with a VSG patient friend.
Long story short, I called one of my doctors numbers to get a coordinator who said she experience the same thing and it turned out to be a stomach ulcer!
No pain, no abnormal gas, just dizziness a day or 2 after having alcohol.
I am wondering how common stomach ulcers are after VSG, what your experiences were like, and how common they are for us?
I imagine a lack of pain could certainly be due to a lack of nerve endings- we now have scar tissues where our stomachs were cut! But the dizziness is an odd thing to experience all on it's own.
