When I went to bed last night I felt like I was falling down the rabit hole from alice in Wonderland. I woke up the same way. I cannot look down and am having trouble walking. I had this condition over a year ago and could not hardly get out of bed for a week. My husband wonders if I could be getting too much calcium. With Bariatric advantage we are suppose to take 3 a day. I have never had children and my bone density test said I have bones of a woman in 20s plus I never had any children. Any thoughts on what could have brought this on so suddenly? Can klor con help? Bonnie

are you on any blood pressure meds???
sounds like hypotension to me which can happen with sudden movements or going from sitting to standing position...
If your on these meds they will probably need to be decreased by the MD.... BE CAREFUL!!!

First off, call your dr ASAP and tell him what's going on.
That said.
1) What's your blood pressure and your blood sugar level?
2) Are you still on medication that you had pre op? If so, the weight loss may be throwing a curve because you need less medication due to the weight loss.
3) Are you up and up on your vitamins and supplements? Something may be low, so you may need to have a complete blood panel done.
4) Is your dizzyness the ceiling-goes-round-and-round type? If so, the dyziness may be unrelated to weight loss, it may be inner ear (where we sense our blance, as well as hear) trouble.
5) I am leaving out orthostatic hypotension (postural hypotension) here because the dizzyness is continuous, rather than coming and going with the change in your position, or turning your head or etc etc.

These are on the top of my list for what I check my patients for, so, get in touch wtih your dr ASAP.
