Onions Weird For Anyone.

[Fiddleman 4,376]

I ate some diced onions with some garbanzo Beans, Edime (sp?) and some chives for lunch today. It king of burned a little and gave me dizzy spacey blacking out feeling. Lots of ringing in the ears. It is strange because I am pretty sure I have eaten some onions post op. maybe it was the chives, not sure. The sleeve was iffy about something.

You probably overfilled. What you described sounds like a vagal response. I get that when I overfill and put pressure on my vagal nerve. My daughter does not have this problem with her sleeve, so it is an individual thing. The surgeon repaired a hiatal hernia I didn't know I had, so that might be the difference between me and my daughter. Be careful with this. It can make you completely pass out. Google for information if you want. It sure makes me careful with eating too fast and too much. Kathe

Thanks for the information. I read all about it on Wikipedia and think a few of the trigger points apply to me. It might not have been related to eating too fast or too much, but may have been caused by other reasons like stress, prolonged siting or loss or sleep. All have applied in last week. It appears it is fairly benign unless you pass out and hurt yourself by hitting something on the way down. That being said, I do have a tendency to eat way too fast, working on that.
