For a few weeks now I have been having the shakes in my hands and arms. I told my PCP and he said he didn't think it was anything but to go see a neurologist. I asked the NUT and she said check your blood sugar, which I did and is normal. I then asked my Psych about meds since I have lost weight maybe it had something to do with it and he said no. My next step is to ask my chiropractor. It doesn't happen all the time. It feels like I have had a huge jolt of caffeine but haven't. Anyone else have this problem? Maybe dehydration?

How old are you? Also, make the doctors dig deeper.

When was your WLS? Have you had the shakes before or until after??

I'd like to learn what the doctor's tell you is causing it? Have they done lab work to check your everything's low on a Vitamin?

Where you a diabetic or hypoglecmic before?

I just had my WLS sleeve 1wk ago, I called my surgery doctors office this morning to ask or get suggestions to help me. I've been waking up feeling shaky and light headed.

I shouldn't be dehydrated because I'm drinking all my Proteins, drinking 100z of fluids daily, blood sugar are good too.

I'm not sure if I'm still hypoglecmic or not or diabetic type 2 anymore but plan to see my pcp next week.

This shaky things feels horrible, I'm able to cope with it because I'm home recovering but worry about what if this horrible shakes comes on while driving.

Hope you feel better and get results soon, pls keep us posted, it's so important to share our journey. Feel better.

My WLS was 9/25/13. I have been type 2 before. I have been testing my blood sugar and it's fine. My pcp and shrink have verified not any meds I'm on. NUT says not dehydrated and isn't anything I'm eating. So I took notes and went to my chiropractor and it turned out to be my neck was out and I was having Migraines. I normally get the really painful ones but these were different. So far so good. I really hope that you feel better. It could be that your body is just getting used to the trauma that it went through. Let me know how it goes.

I'm glad to hear your mystery is resolved, good to know so you can address it.

Well my doctor asked me to go to the lab for some blood work, so I did. Hopefully I hear back from them this wknd. I was so weak to drive myself, I had to ask my mom to drive me, today I couldn't get my walking done. Hopefully tmrw is a better day.

Thank you for sharing and hope you don't get the shakes anymore. Take good care.

I get migraines from aspartame. If you're drinking a lot of crystal light or eating other "sugar free" things you might check the food content and see if that is what it is.

I actually have had them my whole life. I have a very bad spine and neck. I have had tremendous relief from my chiropractor.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
