VSG on 01/24/13
When I went for my bariatrician appt at 9 months my BP and pulse were pretty low. First of all they used the obese cuff on me. They acted like no one who lost 110 lbs in 9 mos and exercises 4 to 5 times a week ever had their bp and pulse get lower. I feel great, am able to exercise and don't have any orthostatic dizziness. Great information on the possible hormonal connnection. I go to a large center, but sometimes I think they think VSG patients are exactly like gastric byass patients, which we are not. I have been allowing myself extra salt recently also.
