| did you fast for the blood tests? what did they test for? get them to check EVERYTHING, every blood test they can do. It could be something simple like low iron, blood pressure, etc. no harm in getting it checked out. the way I see things is it is your body, you know when things arent right :) | |

| I do too...but i actually HAVE passed out.
Mine is (so they think at the moment) related to a slow heart beat and low blood pressure.
I have had some other health problems too so who knows.
Maybe go back to your GP and ask for some further testing.
Best wishes, its very weird and terrifying when you DO pass out on the bathroom floor (and then in hospital and stress out the nurses) and you cant focus on anything, cant see but can hear people... very odd experience.
Hope they can get to the bottom of it for you xoxo | |

| Hi Barney,
Might be low blood sugar levels. If it is, would be easily rectified with some jelly beans and juice then a proper food/meal.

i am only new sleeved, but before i was i had similar things - simply it was iron
there was also another thread - maybe lack of protein in ur diet>?
maybe go back on shakes for a few days - watch what your eating and see ifyour eating enough food for one and or not a lot of sugary foods
did the dr give u any thoughts on why? | |

| Hi all, I am now just over 3 years post op but am still having 'episodes' every so often where I feel dizzy and light headed, I am shakey and feel like I am going to pass out. These happen for no apparent reason and can occour when I am sitting. I take multivitamins daily and recently had a blood test and dont seem to be lacking in anything nutritionally. Has anyone else experienced this? any advise as to how these can be prevented would be really appreciated. | |
