Has any one experienced light headedness, dizziness and feeling of head spinning. Went to ER due to passing out. My lab test, chest x-ray and cat scan were all within normal limits. I did have urinary track infection,

and laceration to lip and back of head. I always am dizzy

Are you on blood pressure medicine? I had several vasal vagel episodes in the weeks following my surgery. Kept cutting back my blood pressure meds and now I am on 1/4 of what I used to take. Even if you are not on bp med, it could be low blood pressure.

Same boring message, Are you getting enough Protein and fluids in? I weaken a lot when I sleep for a lot of hours and haven't had anything for 8 or more hours. It takes me some hours of getting fluids back in me to stabilize again daily. It is a sort of chore each morning to get some energy again. I am almost 3 weeks post op and have til the 19th of July til I go to puree stage. I am losing a lot daily so the trade off is worth the difficulty. Maybe getting more protein and fluids could help?

The first two months after surgery I was extremely dizzy whenever I got up or moved. I once passed out at the doctors office and had seizures. All my test came back okay. They thought it had to due with dehydration and the pain from recovery. As time goes on I have the dizzy spells less and less. I hit the three month mark next week.
