I was getting a little dizzy upon standing a little while back. I am under a PCP's care for blood pressure. Since he have cut me to half dose on my BP meds, I have not had any dizziness upon standing. Do either of y'all have known blood pressure issues?

I dont my pressure has always been good. HAd it checked yesterday and doc said it was perfect. She drew blood to check all my levels. She said it could be a deficiency of some kind. I will now more later today when I get the results.

No I don't have blood pressure problems...I think I eat enough and get my Vitamins so I have no idea, but it's a lousy feeling.

Be sure to update with the results as we probably have the same thing going on

So I had my bloods drawn they think It is my Iron and B12 levels. I was taking B12 once a week now she said take 3xs a week. And I have been put on a daily Iron supplement. Also they think I am dehydrated but I drink plenty of liquids so I dont think that is right. But I will do as they say and see what happens.

I think we're in the slow loser club...I'm at 56 at 4 months...my husband (sleeved the same day) is down 90 pounds! I hear we're not supposed to compare ourselves with others...so I keep telling myself. :)

I don't want to kill myself exercising just to lose the weight quicker because I know I will not maintain the routine once I go back to work (I'm a teacher so I'm off for the summer). Also, I think it will be easier to not snack during the day once September rolls around...right now I'm home with my two young kids that eat every 5 minutes...they're not helping my cause!

      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?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
