Not feeling good



Recommended Posts

I had my gastric bypass done on Nov 17. I still am always tired. I’m also dizzy a lot. It may be not enough liquid but I don’t think so. Any ideas? Anybody Thanks

Have you kept track of how much you are taking in: Fluids and Protein. It really helps to write everything down, so then you will see where you are at. Sorry this is going on. When I got dizzy and had heart palpataions it was because I was dehydrated. I thought I was ok with it but I found out I wasn't. KEEP ON KEEPING ON!!!

Have you been taking your Vitamins? Get your blood work done if you can. Just to make sure you don't have a Vitamin deficiency.

Also the dizziness can be a blood pressure issue always better just to put in a call to your Dr.

Have you had any previous issues with blood sugar prior to surgery (ie. insulin resistance)? I'm having a lot of problems with low blood sugar since my surgery in the fall and that can certainly make you feel dizzy and tired...

I haven't had WLS yet but I know that if my Iron is low I get dizzy and get weird palpitations. Def have your iron levels checked.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
