Did anyone develop low blood sugar? I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU.

So last night when I got up to go to the bathroom. I fainted. Flat out fainted no warning no dizziness no memory of it. I went to the doctor today she took my blood sugar and its low. She also thinks my BP is dropping when I stand up. So I have to get a BP monitor. I was just wondering if anyone else developed low blood sugar? I am six months post and at goal for a couple weeks now.

I am having similar problems as well. It's such an odd thing because I'm use to having high blood pressure problems. As of today, I am completely off my blood pressure med (Atenolol) because my blood pressure is consistently low. The doctor was concerned today because my heart rate was 43 and has been low the past two months. My EKG was otherwise normal.

I don't know why my heart rate is so low, maybe it has to do with the surgery and weight loss. I've lost 90 pounds since my surgery 4 1/2 months ago. I do feel light headed when I stand up quickly sometimes. I'm curious if that is related to heart rate, blood pressure, or blood sugar. Otherwise, I've been feeling fine.

Keep me posted if you find anything out. Thank you.

I saw a post somewhere - the person said they keep Apple juice handy for when their blood sugar goes down and it brings it up immediately

I almost didn't get released from the hospital when I had my surgery on 12/12 because my sugars were low (41). I go in for my 6 week post op next Wednesday and get my labs drawn. I've never had any issues with my sugar levels before surgery but I have a feeling they are still continually low. Hopefully I get an answer to this....it's hard and I'm light headed and dizzy most of the time.
