Is it normal to be really clumsy - 8 days post op
I noticed my equilibrium was off and still is if I get up too fast. At my post op check up, my doc did warn me that this is very common. Because we are losing weight, it throws the blood flow off some (he told me in technical terms that I can't quite remember right now) He warned me to watch out for dizzy spells - especially if I move suddenly or get up too quickly. Sometimes I feel like a drunken sailor - listing to the side while walking! I had my surgery on New Years Eve and it's not happening as often, but now I get super flushed all of a sudden... probably from the same type of thing. (or my surgery pushed me into menopause and they are just hot flashes!)
