4th day Post-op. Feeling really dizzy, FEEDBACK please



Recommended Posts

Today is day 4 postop. I woke up feeling light headed and dizzy. The room was seriously spinning. Also, I have been running low grade fevers. Has this happened to anybody out there? Maybe because I am so low on calories and food? ? Feedback would be grately appreciated.

S+5 here. That does not sound normal.

Are you having trouble getting in the Protein and Water?. I am still struggling with getting in two Protein shakes a day. Finally made it today and it seems to help with my energy level. Water was a struggle until I realized I could take more than 1 OZ of water at a time. I'm still not as hydrated as I would like, but am getting better.

Any signs of fever shortly post op is not a good thing. call your doctor and chances are they will want you to come in! Dehydration does not lead to a fever, dizzy yes fever no.. please call your doc!!

fluids as much as possible.

if it does not subside .. have your Iron levels checked! you may need to double up on iron supplements if needed.

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

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
