Yes, especially the first couple of months after treatment. I even passed out a couple of times and hit the floor. It's better now but still, there are times when I've been relaxing for a period of time that I get the same thing.

Docs say it's orthostatic hypotension. When your blood pressure drops when you stand up too quickly because it has pooled in the lower extremities of your body. My symptoms were aggravated by BP meds and I have had to lower my doses due to the amount of weight I lost during treatment.
