Sosmething Is Wrong And I Need Opinions



Recommended Posts

I am 9 days post op and I have been feeling great. No problem drinking getting my liquids and Protein then yesterday I started having a hard time drinking Fluid. I felt a sick to my stomach and bloated and had to force myself to drink. Last night I felt such a exits I couldn't get to sleep. I woke up this morning and I still don't fell like I can drink and I fell really shaky. I have never had depression or anexiety issues. I also did not have any comorbities like diabetes or high blood pressure. But I do fell weak and dizzy today almost like my sugar is low or something.

Does anyone have any suggestions or advice that could help I'm never sick and feel like I'm going crazy.

Try POP CYCLE,,,,,this will help your sugar...restriction is strange can vary from day to day. Some days I can drink like crazy others I feel the sipping restriction take hold...call your Dr. if you feel something is wrong.

Even if you have to call the doctor for advice, do it, because in a couple more days you will end up in the E.R. with an i.v.

You can dehydrate VERY quickly at this stage.

Your sugar may very well be low. I agree with Dooter; this is a great time to call your doctor to rule out problems.

I second calling your doctor to get some advice. I'm going through something very similar right now with weakness and dizziness. My doc actually told me to eat more sugar as I'm not getting in enough calories. I'm not diabetic but I've had issues before with low blood sugar levels.

Agreed with all above, please call your Dr. Likely it is low blood sugar too, so in the mean time drink about 8 Oz of G2 - see how that helps.

I'm 9 days out and am having similar problems. After one bad day of not being able to get enough Fluid, Protein and/or calories I felt like YUK. After seeing my dr. yesterday, he recommended I go in to get a liter of IV fluids transfused and I'm doing that this a.m. I really pushed yesterday and took in more calories and fluids by way of apple juice & broth and that has made me feel better. Still weak, tho. Good luck.

LOVE G2. Saved my bacon that first week with Clear Liquids. I like the little powder packs. Tastes better somehow. I even dilute it more than it says.

Thanks for all the help I talked to my dr. Office and they gave me similar advice. I am now worried about a blockage in my stomach I feel stuffed compared to normally feeling satisfied and I am burping up tons of air almost like my stomach is trying to digest but it's not going down. I feel stuff up to my esophagus. I almost wish I could just throw up to feel better.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
