I was having dizzy spells too. When I saw my surgeon last week - they took me off my high blood pressure meds - my blood pressure was 99/55 before taking them. I haven't had the dizziness since.

Wow - I am so glad I found this post. I thought I was going through PMS for 2 weeks and wondering why! I have been so down lately - I just can't snap out of it. I am going back to work on Monday - and am hoping for a little change in mood. If this is hormonal - that explains the way I am feeling - also explains why hubby and dog have been hiding in the basement! :thumbup1:

I get that pain as well - I think it is gas as it comes and goes. If I rub the area, it usually goes away. I sometimes get a gas pocket in my left shoulder as well.

Something I have noticed with my surgeon is that his guidelines were originally for the RNY and have not really been updated for the sleeve. I would think with the sleeve the Water does not pass through as quickly through the stomach because we still have the original plumbing - so maybe not drinking during meals is more to get in the required other nutrients and not have the sleeve filled with water when eating. I am seeing him today and asking a lot of those questions. I'll let you know what I find out.
