Dizzy, light headed... low bp

I’m 9 months post op and have been getting light headed and dizzy a lot this past week. Never had high bp preop, but I checked today and I’m low. 90/60. Anyone has this?

Also this week I almost passed out three times while visiting a family member in the hospital. I don’t know if it was the intensity, the temperature or what but it was strange for me.

Last labs were good a few weeks ago, still a little low on iron but the rest were stable and normal, aside from my good cholesterol, it’s pretty low.

Thoughts?

Have you checked your blood sugar? This sounds like it could be a possibilty that you are having hypoglycemic episodes.

I hope not but you would do well to see a Dr as soon as possible.
