4th day post op

[Joy@boman 151]

Feeling pretty horrible today. Im getting down my first premier shake but super weak and still have vertigo. When I stand up I stumble. I have not had narcotics but one time. I drank like 50 ounces yesterday. My sleeve is pretty tight. Im taking Vitamins. Thought I would be better by now.

I/m sorry to hear you're not feeling well. I would have thought the dizziness would be from dehydration, but sounds like you are drinking pretty good. I would keep going with that till you can get 64 a day. I know it's tough! Have you called your doctor about the vertigo?

@@Joy@boman It's still very early and not unusual for you to feel crappy still. Concentrate on fluids - that's most important. Try something with electrolytes (Powerade Zero, G2) and some broth (sodium). Hang in there!!!

I am now a month and a half out and the Vertigo is gone. I had it for about 3 weeks. Not bad, just disconcerting. You should feel 10 times better than you do today by this time next week. Hang in there.

do you have high blood pressure or take meds for high blood pressure? if so, you may want to call your surgeon or primary doc and discuss reducing dosage - I was shocked at how quickly I needed to reduce the dosage on mine due to extreme dizzy spells.

The first few days are tough for sure. The gas pressure in the chest. I dont have high blood pressure or anything but may be hypoglycemic.
