Anyone else dizzy and cold? I'm nearing the end of 4weeks post roux en y.

I do get cold but your dizziness may be due to dehydration or lack of nutrients... are you getting a minimum of 64oz of h2o a day and enough Iron?

This is a common side effect of low iron. Be careful :-)

Too funny i just asked my dr about me being really cold. I thot it was because my iron is usually low but my numbers were fine, he said i am losing my insulation(fat) so its goinh to be a cold winter. Lol

I am freezing all the time... even when it was 100 degrees this summer

I'm always cold and sometimes get dizzy when exercising

My Dr told me dizziness is from being dehydrated and not getting in ask my protein I've been drinking Oz and at least 60 GM protein the past 3 days and I'm not dizzy! Haven't been cold yet but usually I'm always freezing not looking forward to the winter.

Should I take one extra Vitamin? I've been doing everthing by the book.

Yes, I am literally doing everything by the book. Maybe I should try stopping my prilosec as I hear it can interfere with absorption with Vitamins.

I have been freezing also- my dr. Told me at my 1 month check up that I was gonna freeze this winter, so be prepared. I didn't even mention to him that I had been cold.
