Pale?

I've always been a very pale, but I've had 3 people today tell me how white I look! I'm 10 days out...is this normal?

You're still recuperating from major surgery. 10 days out is still in the ealry stages of recuperation so being pale shouldn't be alarming unless you have other symptoms. If you're concerned you should call your doctor, that's why they get the big bucks! :rolleyes: I hope all is well.

could be blood pressure going to a normal state

My students said I looked like "death washed over" until about a month after surgery (around the time I started mushies). I think it's normal due to the low amount of calories we intake immediately after surgery.

Yeah I did too. That's all my boss and mother in law would say to me. It got on my nerves, I started tanning lol. Only bad vice I have now. It helped me feel warm also cause I woke up from surgery cold.

I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one! I hate feeling so tired and looking so pale, but I know this will pass. :)
