mrsflyboybs 62 Posted May 9, 2012 I'm 3 weeks post op and every time I stand up I get woozy/ dizzy. I'm drinking enough, getting my Protein and I'm off my pain meds. It's strange that it started just yesterday. Anybody with a similiar story? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AngieG0410 52 Posted May 9, 2012 Are you on blood pressure meds? Maybe you don't need them anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
topgun 63 Posted May 9, 2012 I'm 3 weeks post op and every time I stand up I get woozy/ dizzy. I'm drinking enough, getting my Protein and I'm off my pain meds. It's strange that it started just yesterday. Anybody with a similiar story? I was just going to post a similar question but I read this and thought I'd just tag along. I'm 5 weeks out with the same symptoms plus very tired and lacking energy. I know it's not hydration or Protein and my labs all came back 10 days ago and they were spot on. From week 3 to week 5 I felt absolutely great and then this happened. Any ideas? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kimmy*custis 276 Posted May 9, 2012 I get that every once in a while too and I am 12 weeks out today. I am thinking Fluid intake is lacking a bit for me but...I also find if I sit for a extended period of time and get up quickly I get the dizzy feeling too, just for a few seconds tho. I would call your doc to see what he thinks. Good luck to you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrsnate 55 Posted May 9, 2012 I was just about to post this! Twice today when I stood up I felt like I could pass out. I literally laid on the floor to prevent myself from passing out. I am on blood pressure meds (though I've never had high blood pressure I take it for my heart palpitations) so I'm wondering if it makes my blood pressure too low?
