Guest guest Posted October 1, 2000 Report Share Posted October 1, 2000 Hi. I had to comment on this. I also had these flashes of dizziness for about six months prior to my surgery. I have not had any since my surgery and what a relief! I don't know what caused them, but since I was nearing 40, I thought that it could possibly be a horomone thing. I was at my highest weight ever and could tell that my health was going downhill fast. I was tested for sleep apnea and my c-pap helped me to sleep and greatly reduced my dizzy episodes, so it could have been the lack of oxygen caused by my sleep apnea. I hope you feel better very soon. Stormy > Ok everyone... I have a question that I hope SOMEONE out there can help me with... I have been getting " waves " or " flashes " of dizziness since earlier this year... They happen very quick but are pretty persistent.... I am thinking it's caused by high/low blood pressure or maybe even stress related anxiety? The only reason i think this is because when I stopped " trying " to get the MGB and completely took myself away from it for 3 months, I didn't have one single episode... As soon as i started back on this journey, they have come back... Did anyone else have this happen and if so, did you find out the cause? I'm not worried that it might be a thing to do with my brain or anything like that since it DID stop for 3 months... But, it's really irritating... > > In my thoughts and prayers, > > Terri > > " But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2000 Report Share Posted October 2, 2000 Hi Stormy... Maybe it's just a weight thing? I'm the highest I've ever been <shy about 6 lbs> as well... I got some STUPIS azz email when I logged on today by SOMEONE suggesting that " Maybe your dizziness and hotflashes are a warning of what you already know. " That is a direct quote... Gee! I WONDER who that was from... hehehe... WHATEVER! Yea.. and maybe I will sprout wings tomorrow!! LOL... But it may always be because of oxygen or lack there of as well being that I don't breath as well now... I sure do hope it gets better... Glad to hear yours did!
