Most likely dehydration, or lack of b Vitamins.

Just try to get your liquid in.

I did pass out and had a few other close calls thinking I would. I've never done that in my life. It's getting to be summer and fluids are majorly important. I also wasn't getting enough food and calories (carbs) and my blood glucose was falling. Call ur dr. A dr makes a certain commitment to his pts after performing such life altering surgery. That's why they want to follow u for years afterwards. Call ur dr! Record your intake as that could be a helpful insight to him with what's going on. Hope it gets better for u

I agree with everyone else. Check your Fluid intake. That will most likely be the cause. Call the doc just for peace of mind.

Have you tried by going into your sign in name and click on it? I think it states something like Update and there is a sub-heading My Tickers, click on that a follow directions.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
