Day 3 and I feel a little dizzy



Recommended Posts

Well, not really dizzy but almost like itsy bitsy black outs; does that make sense? Does or has any one else felt like this right after surgery? I had surgery on Monday.

I was feeling dizzy and spaced out after my surgery and my nutritionist said it could either be dehydration and suggested I drank more Water or, if you suffer from high blood pressure this is a normal reaction to the sudden weight loss. Whatever it was, it disappeared after 10days. If you're concerned speak to your doctor or nutritionist.

U hope you feel better soon.

Are you still on pain medication or nausea meds? Either of these can cause that fuzzy feeling. Also, if you are sitting more than usual, it could be hyper-static blood pressure. Try standing still for a few seconds when you get up to walk around and that may help.

Thank you! I just took my blood pressure and it is 130/89. Not good, not bad. Unfortunately the pain meds he gave me didn't work at all so I'm only on Advil. I do drink a lot of Water.... I was thinking that maybe I'm not getting what my body needs but I'm following the diet. Does anyone take Vitamins or did you this early on?

Thanks everyone!!

I take a multi Vitamin everyday, as advised to do so.

Thank you!
