What Causes Recurring Fatiuge And Profuse Sweating Post Gastric Bypass?

Why do I get easily tired, sweat profusely, clammy, and exhausted? If I lie down for 20-30 minutes symptoms go away but this happens 2-3 X daily. I am 61 years old, 235 lbs and had gastric bypass 18 months ago. did 2 rounds of antibotics for respiratory infection in March.

Hello,

It can be a sign of dumping syndrome which is common after gastric surgery. You can have small feeds at short intervals to prevent symptoms. If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain
