Anyone really lightheaded?



Recommended Posts

I am four weeks out and the last couple of days to a week whenever I stand up my vision wants to black out and I get really lightheaded. It really sucks cause I want to walk, but can't. Anyone else having this problem????

Yes I did for a long time. After switching to bariatric Vitamins and really really trying to get my Water in, it happens a lot less.

I am! I went to my two week post op visit today and my blood pressure was 94/62! The surgeon didn't seem too concerned,just said it would get better (the dizziness ) in two weeks when I start my Vitamins. I feel a tiny bit better when I get more Water in. Good luck to you!

Are you on any blood pressure meds b/c of your kidneys? You may not need it anymore, or need a lower dose. If you don't have a home BP monitor you can drop by your PCP's office and have it checked usually for nothing. The ones in stores tend to be inaccurate I was told.
