Flabtofab122717 26 Posted January 4, 2018 New to the group, sleeved on 12/27. Feeling alright, except having BP issues. I was on meds prior to surgery, and now my pressures are low post surgery and my body isn’t sure how to deal with normal pressures. Dizzy bed lightheadedwhen I am standing/ get up from sitting down. Dr. Is monitoring. Anyone else deal with this? 1 Nubbinsd22 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
abefroman329 704 Posted January 4, 2018 Yes, and this was after halving the medication I take for my systolic right after surgery. Going to see my primary doctor on Wednesday. My home BP monitor said it was 127/72, but those things aren't particularly reliable. 1 Nubbinsd22 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brittanyblue 55 Posted January 5, 2018 I had mine 12/22...and I’ve been feeling hunger pains since about day 5. I’m on day 7 and felt hunger pains today for the first time. My doctor said to drink a Protein Shake and that’ll curb it till I’m on my next phase. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lotte22 37 Posted January 5, 2018 I definitely want to eat. Real bad. Tonight we went out for my dads birthday and it was torture. But I don’t really feel physical hunger. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I over exert myself (by necessity) and I haven’t been perfect on the post op diet. But I’m getting through it. I discovered miso Soup yesterday. It’s a clear liquid with tons of salt so it helps Water retention and is soooo delicious! How are you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
