need some direction or advise.
It has been awhile since I have been on this forum. It has been 3 years since my ryn surgery. I lost 140 pounds. However six months into the process I started to have alot of problems. I started to have seizures, low blood pressure, high heart rate, severe hypoglycemia, sleep apnea, migranes. Lately the more I go to the doctor the more problems are added to the mix. I have always taken my meds and supplements. I went from being on 2 medications and supplements to seventeen medication. No one can find the root of my problem. Ever specialist just sends me to another person and all of them just fix their issue and medicate and more stuff comes up. Today I was told I need iron transfusion,low vitamin D, low potassium, low iron. I have gained almost all my weigh back. I have moved and now have to find a new doctor. I seriously am thinking of asking for a reversal. Has anyone had any of these problems or know of a good doctor near cheaspeake virgina. I have no idea how to become normal. I am so tired and depressed. I feel like all of this was done and I should have never had it done. Yes I orginally lost the weight but now with all the medication I am gaining weight. Please someone shed some advice.

I don't see any post after Feb, so I am not sue that you will even see my note. I have no opinion as to what is or may be going on, but I DO know this~ you are in one of the BEST states to find out! You may have to travel to Dallas or Houston, but there are MANY Bariatric specialists who have been doing WLS for years there. If it was me having all the problems you have, I'd be finding the one who has been dealing with RYGB for the longest time and it's a good chance that he/she may have seen some of the 'issues' you have had since your surgery.
I hope you find out what is going on and soon.
