You know how you can sometimes get a little bit lightheaded in a hot shower? (Happens to me all the time.) It's a combination of 2 things usually: hot Water on out skin opens up a bunch of capillaries in your skin and muscles (skin reddens) and a lot of blood rushes out of your inside parts to your skin. If you're dehydrated, that hot water effect is amplified and it can make you feel really lightheaded or dizzy for a little bit until your capillaries go back to normal. That's why it's super important to drink water even if you're not an WLS patient before showering up after the gym or getting in the hot tub, otherwise you can get disoriented and maybe even fall. Us, WLS-ers are prone to dehydration so I'm guessing that's what happened to you! Hope you feel better!!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
