Cold Sweat An Shakes



Recommended Posts

So ive been banded since 10/07/11. Today was the first time i all pg a sudden felt a cold sweat an got shaky. At about 2pm earlier i had some coffee an a poptart ( not good i know but i was working since 4am). Anyways went shopping with dh an broke out in a cold sweat an got the shakes. BTW i have 4cc in my 10cc band with no restriction. Any ideas? Thanks

Did you get light headed? I sometimes have a drop in blood pressure if I've been standing for a long period of time. Could have been a blood sugar drop, as well. Finally, maybe you were just hungry. Real, true hunger.

Yah hunger could have been it. I have been trying to wait to eat until my stomach growls. Just to make sure im hungry.

Yes it sounds like a drop in blood sugar from hunger. This was probably a better indication ( although maybe you left it a bit too long) that you were hungry than a growling stomach. Stomachs growl all the time, quite often for reasons other than hunger.

I was reading that this can happen when you don't chew enough or eat too fast, I think is goin to be something I'm not going to be looking forward too001_huh.gif

When my Diabetes was out of control, that was the true sign of Hyoglycemia - dangerously low blood sugar. Take something to raise it. Let it continue and you could drop into a Diabetic Coma.

If you are not having anything until 2pm, you are not doing your body any good. Try to have something in the am. And tummy growls are normal, so don't take that as a sign that you are hungry!!! I get them a lot, and know that I am not hungry, as I just had soemthing. Good luck, might be blood pressure too low, or low blood sugar. Karen

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
