massindex 346 Posted May 30, 2012 Very common, especially just after the surgery. Dizziness usually occurs when too much time passes between meals, or is an early warning sign of dehydration. Lack of food or loss of bodily Fluid interrupts the body’s physiological process; the electrolytes get out of balance. Increase your Water first then look to eat, depending on what stage you are at. 1 7carol3 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

missygirl 0 Posted May 30, 2012 Thanks!! I am not getting dehydrated, so I believe it is lack of food. I am only 9 days post surgery and am afraid to have to much. I am nerveous about stretching it out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
