Feeling A Little Weak And Dizzy In The Morning..........



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone. I just wanted to touch base on a few things I have been feeling to see if it's the norm or not. I'm a week out post op and doing awesome!!!! But for the past few days I have noticed that I am a little weak and dizzy in the morning. I am eating correctly, drinking my shakes, and taking my Vitamins. It does pass after I eat Breakfast.

Any info would be great! Thanks and have a lovely day!

I am not a medical professional. My guess is your blood suger is low. My surgery was long ago. Recently I got up in the morning and waited to eat until I decided whether to go to the gym (trying to plan my hour post eating before I could drink water). Long story short it was now 12:00 noon and I have not eaten since 6:00 the night before. I stood up quickly to answer the door and thought I was going to pass out!

I am six weeks post-op today and the weakness and dizziness was the absolute worst part of the surgery for me!! The first two days post-surgery I was fine. By the night of the third day post-op I was feeling really bad. I was so weak and dizzy on the 5th day post-op that I was convinced something was terribly wrong and I called the doctor and went to the ER!! My 7th day post-op was my first day back at work and I thought I was going to die I was so weak, dizzy and nauseated! After that 7th day, though, I have felt much, much better. I'm no longer having any problems with weakness, but I still get dizzy occasionally when I stand up. Hang in there, it gets better!

It sounds like u have low sugar of a morning which many do on the post op liquids, i suggest u have a drink of milk or drink milk mixed with yoghurt before u sleep the few carbs that are in milk products will help balance your sugar a little overnight as they slow release .. no harm in trying anyways :)

ii wonder if your sugar levels are just a little lower that time of day?? im no expert but i know what low sugar levels do to me. At least it goes when you eat breakfast. it does sound like you are low.
