Help- any idea what could be going on ???
Hello everyone, I'm about 4 months out from my RNY, and 2 wks ago I was at work and almost fainted !!! went to the E.R. and they said my tests were normal, but I may be dehydrated, so they gave me 3 bags of fluids via I.V. Last night I had another dizzy spell at work, went straight to the E.R. they did blood tests, all normal- told me to go to a cardiologist. I went, and am now hooked up to a traveling monitor with wires all over my chest, and have to have an echo cardiogram next week. PLEASE- has anyone had this ??? getting light-headed and/or dizzy to almost fainting ??? I'm scared ****less !!!!
Since I started my preop liquid diet an entire month before I had surgery I have been getting dizzy spells when I get up. If I stand up and walk it is worse than when I just stand up and wait a sec. I have never passed out from this but I am four month out from surgery now and I feel like it has been getting worse. I had asked the surgeon early on about it and he didnt seem too concerned after asking a few questions. But now that it is getting more frequent and comes on easier I am planning on going to see a doctor...
