It seems that I feel weak & dizzy while on my period. Never had this issue prior to VSG. Do any of you have this same issue?? And can this be a sign of anemia? I don't know if having low iron is worse during your cycle due to all the blood loss?? All I know is that I've just been out of it this past week.

All I know is I'm sympathizing with you.. I get a horrible case of no energy, weakness.. and my period lasts longer and is crampier since surgery (oh, joy).. As soon as it passes, I feel fine- so I think at least for me it's hormonal.. but I'm still taking my iron just because.

I was probably more tired and 'sensitive" before surgery ....now, I get depressed and crave chocolate.....I was always tired and I do think it is low iron. 
Try eating some red meat and see if that helps. good luck
