Since sat when i get up from a sitting/laying position i get a dizzy spell not every time but most times

I was sleeved 8/9 and i have my 4 week follow up this friday. i get 60-80 g of Protein a day and as much Water as i can manage im not eating much food per say i get my protein from Unjury chicken broth, yogurt, low fat cheese sticks, think thin low/no sugar low calorie Protein Bars and eggs

Now to make matters worse on Friday i slipped and slid down 4 stairs on my butt and re-injured my coccyx bone (i injured it in the earlys 90's and in 2006) and my stomach muscles hurt too i guess from clenching them when i slid. I'm in a lot of pain and i cannot do much of anything but rest which is hard too since certain positions to lay hurt i havent sought out medical attention for it because i know there isn't much they can do but give me pain meds and im not sure i want back on them.

Not sure if i should call my doc or just wait the few days till i see her? i was also a type 2 diabetic but im not on meds anymore and my sugars have been ok

I think I would call/see the doctor--it doesn't sound like you've injured your stomach but maybe it would be better to have it checked out and know. If they give you pain meds, you can decide whether you want to take them.

Call your doctor, check your blood pressure and glucose. Eat some carbs! Just a little. I was dizzy and dragging ass until I got my carbs up to around 50.

      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.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
