Question:
Any suggestions for me?

Hi everyone! I'm almost four months post-op and have been exercising a great deal. Here is my problem. I'm getting extremely dizzy when I do my exercising. It happened again today. I thought the problem went away, but now it's back. All blood work is great by the way. However....I know, I'm NOT getting in all of my water. (I'M WORKING ON THIS!!)What do you guys think about me adding a liitle Gaterade or All Sport to my water during a workout when I feel dizzy? Thanks everyone!!!!!    — MissAuntieK (posted on September 26, 2000)

I am just a little beyond you, at 5 months post op, and for a short while there, was sick and had a hard time getting my water in ... I also got very, very dizzy all the time. But when I upped my water, it went away. I also got severe headaches from not getting my water in. Lesson learned! I drink Gatorade sometimes too, mixed with water, and it does pep me up.

I think you need B12 shots which should be done periodically

Your blood sugar maybe getting to low, if you know someone with a glocometer borrow it and test your sugar. If you want to buy one Wal-mart has Reli-on meter for 8.88 and the box of 50 strips are 19.88, which is very cheap for these things.
