I'm 19 days post op and I can't even walk around my house easily. I called my surgeon and talked to him and he told me I have to eat to get energy and be able to walk normally. Problem is I can't eat anything at all, maybe a small bite of something and then I feel bloated for two or more hours.
Can I cheat food with anything? Something that will give me energy.
Hello everyone
I'm on my 18th day post op VSG and I feel very very weak. I can't walk from my room to the living room, 8 feel dizzy, weak and a weird burning sensation in my head that lasts for five seconds then if I don't hold on to something I can easily fall.
I can't eat anything at all except for 2 spoons of an omelette.
Is there something wrong with me or is this normal? When can I feel good again. I can't go to work and I'm miserable.
Problem is it doesn't last that long. Today is 12 hours after IV and I'm starting to get weak bit by bit and I'm sure by the night I will be back. Well, it sucks but at least I can remedy it temporarily.
Wow, Berry! That's the right answer!
Yesterday I went to the ER and had and IV and I can tell you, so soon as the bag was half full I felt like myself again!
Thank you very much, I was in such a miserable state not being able to even walk or stand.
Thank you again.
I called my doctor and he said that the reason is that I don't eat at all. I need to eat to counter the low energy but I can't eat anything. I don't know what to do.
