The narcolepsy may be worse because lack of calories?
Regardless, I would speak with your psychologist ASAP, they may need to change up your medications after surgery. It is my understanding this has happened to other people. (I remember reading about it on here) Of course, I am assuming you take medications for your depression but if not maybe some are needed to help you?
A blood sugar of 70 isn't a concerning low but you could let your Doctor know and he may have some insight.
My blood sugar is naturally lower than normal. (in the 60-70 range with fasting) I was told 80-100 is normal.
Good luck, please reach out to the appropriate doctors for help. I hope you feel relief soon!

Also your body is releasing a lot of oestrogen in to your blood stream, which was stored in your fat, as you’re losing stirring up lots of emotions & other issues. Also food you may have depended upon for comfort has been taken away from you. This can cause a lot of anxiety &/or depression (grieving what you can’t have or have lost) for some.
Some find they have to change medications they successfully took before their bypass because they are not being absorbed in the same way. Slow release are one type that are impacted. It may be worth having a conversation with your prescribing doctor.
Drops in blood sugar after surgery isn’t uncommon & usually improves. Try taking an electrolyte drink with you when undertaking any activity can be helpful.
All the best.

My dietician also told me I could eat a tiny piece of cake when it was my birthday in march. I was only 2 months post op by that point. I didn't because i was too scared to eat real cake, I made a sugar free almond flour cake instead.
but just an example you can live a realistic healthy life after surgery and enjoy treats in moderation on special occasions.
There are also a lot of great and healthier substitutes for your favorites.

I have found that anesthesia will cause memory loss - for a little while. You are doing a great job losing! Your hormones are having a fit too. Talk to a professional about your depression!
