lsereno 2,525 Posted February 25, 2014 Yes. I got dizzy in the first few months post op. I was careful to get enough fluids so it wasn't that. I think its pretty common post op. Do be careful to get the fluids in. If you are taking blood pressure meds, they should be evaluated again. Lynda Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its easy to get frustrated so don't get side tracked on your diet, for you its only been December , you are probably losing girth , the weight will come off. I heard that if you shake your head and tilt it to the side it breaks up the salt build up in cochlea which may cause vertigo , I'm not sure on this but i read it somewhere. So I would bring this up to your Doctor. Relax weight will come off Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
