Anyone passing out?!?

Has anyone had any issues with passing out? I had my sleeve done on 1/29/13 and the beginning of feb while on liquids I passed out 2 times, went 911 to ER the 1st time everything was normal except my blood pressure was wacky standing, sitting and lying down. I figured it was the lack of food but last week it happened again! I was out of the house and on the go for about 5 hours without anything to eat but just wanted to see if anyone had any issues with this??

Thanks!!

maybe your blood pressure is too low and you should have it checked. Are you getting in enough calories and liquids each day? I try to eat something every 3-4 hours and if I'm not eating, I'm definitely drinking.

Are you on any meds? I had an issue where I passed out once, well twice in a 5 minute period, and ended up in the ER and they ended up taking me off my blood pressure medicine because everything else was fine. I have had no further issues. The doc also reinforced how important fluids are so make sure you are keeping up with those.
