Ok so I had the weirdest thing happen yesterday

Ok so yesterday I woke up feeling unusually tired.  I got in the shower and started to feel very nauseous and than things went gray like I almost blacked out, I quickly sat down in the tub and had to have hubby come get me.  I called into work slept til almost noon and now today feel just fine?!?!  I was just wondering if anyone thought it was due to the surgery/weightloss or if I was just weird yesterday!!  I drank all my water the day before/took all my vitamins and ate my normal amounts and types of food.  I did notice on Monday a slight fever and just general weak feeling.  Just thought I would ask if anyone thought it was something to be concerned about since I feel good today or if it was maybe just me being sick a day.  I do work in a hospital/clinic and could possibly picked up some odd bug but who knows. OK so there is my weird thing for the day! Thanks to everyone for all there help!

I have had this happen quite a few times after surgery, the farther out I get. I did start checking my blood pressure, and now, after having high blood pressure, and being on meds, I am off meds, and actually have LOW blood pressure. My biggest issues are usually when I stand for any length of time, especially if I get warm. (I do autopsies on weekends, and my worst events were during these when I overheated and had to stand, almost passed out each time, had to sit with head between my legs till my vision cleared). However, being sick can also cause your blood pressure to lower on occasion. Do you ever have this problem if you stand up too quickly? If so you may be having episodes of low blood pressure. If this is a one time thing, chalk it up to being sick. If it happens again, get some piece of mind and have it checked. My bp is now in the 100/55-60 range after being 140/90-95 for a few years, plus down 112. Keep aware of what your body is telling you.

Thanks! I never thought of my blood pressure.  I know I took pills before surgery and right after didn't need them anymore, I havent' checked it now in at least 2 months or more like 3.  Since I work in a clinic there really is no excuse to not check it! I will do it today, I haven't felt like that standing up fast.  But even with meds before my bp ran around 150/90 so who knows maybe having it near normal or maybe even a touch low will make me feel odd!! Thanks for the info I really appreciate it~ who knows maybe it was the warmth of the shower too!

I get like that sometimes...hungry, dehydrated, dumping, low blood sugar, low bood pressure or the flu. I haven't had the throw up flu since my surgery, I get a temp and feel crappy and thats it. If it happens again you'll want to call your surgeon right away.

Thanks I see we had the same surgeon!   I wondered if it was something I ate or low blood sugar in the morning or something.  I know I drank half a glass of milk right after just in case that was it.  I don't know if that is what helped but I will certainly be checking in with the dr if it happens again! I was scared~ I had never felt so weird before!  Again thanks so much!

Oh geesh doll-face, I hope you're okay! Keep us posted! Um, and you need to change your avatar! Much Love!

Thanks Amy!! I do feel much better today! Infact almost as if it never happened~bizarre~ I know I need to change it.  I will have to take a pic of myself tonight and actually sit for a minute and get the new picture on!  I will just have to remember where I went to shrink it so it would fit the last time!!!  I am a bit smaller and a lot less hair than that picture~ both in volume and length!! Boy I can't wait for the hair to quit falling out! I guess I am in my 5th month starting my 6th today, so I probably will be slowing down with the hair loss and hopefully start growing some back. Ok well thanks hon for the post and I only met you once and I miss you!! Talk to you later Kristi
