NatashaSaysRawr 16 Posted March 4, 2016 I'm only 3 weeks about to be 4 weeks out of surgery, but now I'm starting to get dizzy and I almost fainted about two times today, I been drinking plenty of Water, took my Vitamins and my Protein so what could it possibly be?

Bufflehead 6,358 Posted March 4, 2016 It could be orthostatic hypotension. Have you had your blood pressure checked? Does it happen mostly when you stand up after sitting or lying down for a while? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
losinglily 17 Posted March 4, 2016 I'm almost 4 weeks out and have had similar problems. Probably low blood pressure. You should monitor your blood pressure and contact your doctor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kindle 8,667 Posted March 4, 2016 My first answer would be to have your blood pressure checked. But from your posts on another thread, you mentioned you eat once/day and drink Water, tea and Gatorade the rest of the time. So it could be good old fashioned starvation/malnutrition/low blood sugar. Like I mentioned in the other thread, try eating a couple spoonfuls every few hours.

erp 2,016 Posted March 4, 2016 Sip, sip, sip....Happens to me often since surgery, especially when I am working in the yard. For me, it is always related to dehydration. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
