HELP PLEASE FROM THE UK

Please Help!

Can any one help me out there, I had my bypass Aug. 2014 and had 2 set backs, both from the Aug. Every time I stood up I collapsed or went very dizzy, this took the hospital till Dec. before they fond that my legs just had stop holding blood when I stood up, now I am on a tablet for life to allow me to stand up. Now the second problem also from Aug, I have been complaining about Diarrhoea and this has just got worse, at the start the doctors said it was my body readjusting after being plumbed, but now it is getting worse, there is no infection showing on a staging test but after the breath test they have found a large Bacterial Overgrowth in my new small stomach and my small intestine. I have small amount of control now but very little via. tablets, awaiting a new set of specialists.

I would still have had the op as I have lost over 51/2 stone so far but I am, apart from doctor/hospital apartments I am very worried about going out, has anyone else had or could offer any help.

Just in case anyone is looking at this and thinking about going for the op. this set of side effect I have been told, at my hospital, Salford Royal (Hope) around Manchester, HAVE NEVER BEEN SEEN LIKE THIS TOGETHER OR THIS BAD BEFORE. SO PLEASE STILL HAVE THE OP.

I just am looking for any support out there please.
