[Getting healthy]

When I stand up I get dizzy for a second or two. Has that happened to anyone else?

Dizziness is usually something to do with blood pressure dropping, but it could also be something else. I would be calling the dr or bariatric team in charge.

I unfortunately do get a little dizzy sometimes it's just all the changes in my body. I just recently battled Covid Pneumonia so my system is all kinds of screwed up.

Frequently still! But I talked to my primary and surgeon about it. They said that especially after surgery blood pressure changes can occur. Also, being adequately hydrated is important. Make sure to mention it to your doctor though. They should know that it happens. Better to tell them early and it resolve naturally than wait and see without them knowing.

Get a hold of your dr. I’m battling the same thing. Could be low blood pressure or you might be dehydrated. Not a dr. But it happens tome too. So see a dr. Before you actually pass out like I have a couple of times. It’s not fun

Would definitely recommend a check with the doctor. I am having the same thing but tend on being on the low side of blood pressure, especially after my surgery. I am careful when I get up and if the dizziness doesn't subside immediately, I sit back down. Better to sit down then fall down is my motto. Make sure you are keeping hydrated as others have said. I try to drink 80-100 oz of liquid a day to keep hydrated. It's a challenge but I've gotten into a routine that works for me. I hope all is well with you and that this is just a passing thing.
