I have heard of imbalance issues because our bodies are so much lighter and it does cause some people to have tumbles - I can be clumsy too but I have always been a klutz anyway! Hope you are feeling much better soon - that must be quite some pain you are in!! Take care of yourself! Jackie

This doesn't related to your WLS, but rather to your exisiting knee problems.  You said your knee locked up. I am so sorry that you are having problems and I hope things improve real soon.  Loris

Good am Autumn, Sorry to hear about your fall. Balance issues can occur after WLS as our bodies are trying to reach some sort of normalcy again. However, I've got a couple friends and Trey who all have elbow/knee issues and they lock and some have resulted in falls but others cause mainly pain/discomfort. Hope you get this resolved and are feeling lots better. All best!

Oh my goodness!  I hope your knee and head pain go away soon and I don't know what to think about the coordination problems since surgery?  I wish you luck with that improving, especially since your knee can't handle any more falls like this.

Well I fell again twice in under 2 hrs this morning right in front of my children.  I had literally just stood up and next thing I knew I was waking up to kiddos trying to make sure I was ok.  This stinks it is making m get behind at work.  I have now had to pass over $40k in commission to a fellow agent as I don't think it's appropriate for me to drive like this.  Hubby has confined me to bed to reduce falling and hitting my head again.
