light headed & concerned
Last year in about October I started having light-headedness where it felt like the blood rushs down my system like when you ride a rollar coster ride. At first it was very seldom, but is happening more frequently. Was wondering if any other long term post-ops are having this same issue? My surgery date was April 2002 if that'll help on calculations. I lost down to 150 and I remain there still to date. I go up and down a couple of pounds but overall I stay in the 148 - 150 lbs range. If I drink orange juice it seems to help, in most cases. I'm starting to get concerned over this since it's happening more often of late.
If you have any suggestions - other than seeing my doctor - let me know. I'm in Tulsa, OK now and my surgeon is in Nashville, TN and I only go that way 1 or 2 times per year. I have contacted him and they suggested me finding a local doctor, however they all want to charge me as a new patient and I currently don't have insurance.
Thanks.
