Recommended Posts

Ok I got a fill last Tuesday and have been on liquids for two days and start on mushiness today I had my Vitamins and light Breakfast it's 1:30 and I'm still not hungry but went to Walmart and I felt like I was going to faint I got so scared because I was alone... Have any of you felt this way before and why is that?

soundsoundsssounds like a blood sugar low you should always eat something every 3-4 hours just for that reason. I always plan when to eat b4 an outing and carry something in the car or buy something at Walmart when it happened to me in the beginning I have since learned and you will also. missing a meal or waiting to long is never a good idea you want your body to keep working for you and food is the fuel. line dancer

As we know all Dr's have different views but My Dr tells me the amount of food I eat at each meal should hold me 4-5 hrs. Any more than that you may feel weak... you might want to keep a protien bar in your purse for times like this...kind of like a safety net. Just make sure to include it in your calorie count.

May I add, your blood pressure/blood sugar probably dropped too low. If you take pressure pills, get your pressure checked. They made be too strong,now! Best wishes, Karen

It could be a combination of blood pressure drop and dehydration, drink more Water.< /p>

I have had the light headedness and it is scary! Like you, I think it was a combination of low blood sugar and a drop in blood pressure
