    Default Lightheaded?

    My doctor was supposed to follow up on this with me but hasn't. Anyone else lightheaded nearly daily after surgery? I'm seven months out.

    Feels like I'm going to pass out and jaw starts trembling. Sometimes cold sweat.

    Sounds like your blood pressure is dropping or your blood glucose is low. If you are on medication for either blood pressure or diabetes this could be your problem.

    You must see you Dr. If he doesn't get back to you you need to find another one. There are a few thing that could be wrong...you need a blood test.

    def sounds like low blood sugar, you should get blood work done, also if you aren't getting enough sodium, potasium, if something is off with nutrients that your body needs that could happen, do you log what you eat?
