Hi I’m 5 weeks post opp but I’ve been having trouble with passing out anyone got any suggestions as to why? Thanks April

That must be pretty scary. Have you seen your doctor yet about it?

Yes, see your doctor ASAP! I had low blood pressure and low blood sugar so either one of those could be it, but contact your doctor for a diagnosis. Hope it gets better soon!

Yes been in hospital every weekend for UTI infection keeps coming back had u one test on Friday and showed clear. I’ve been eating to much at certain points do u think it could be dumping syndrome? But last faint on Friday there had been a two hour gap. I had the opp in turkey so I’m not in touch with the Bariatric team here but have been in and out and had every test. There was a problem after my surgery three days in and I couldn’t keep even a single drop of water down. The done an endoscopy and found I had oedema in my stomach. They drained it but said if it didn’t settle I would need the mini bye pass. Thank god it settled but can’t help feel it’s something to do with that. I do suffer a bit with low blood pressure so could be that. I do fed up I can’t face going to hospital again.
thank you for your reply April

I had problems early on from dehydration and was told that I wasn’t drinking enough. But I did have a hard time getting fluid in for a while
