Today is day 4 postop. I woke up feeling light headed and dizzy. The room was seriously spinning. Also, I have been running low grade fevers. Has this happened to anybody out there? Maybe because I am so low on calories and food?? Feedback would be grately appreciated.

I get dizzy when I am dehydrated and thats preop! Make sure your drinking enough and if your still worried call your team thats what they are there for good luck and congratulations

Water!

Water, water, water...fluid....call your team.... Congratulations on your newborn tummy!

I'm 4 days out too! You need water! I know it's hard but try to drink more

S+5 here. That does not sound normal.

Are you having trouble getting in the Protein and Water?. I am still struggling with getting in two Protein shakes a day. Finally made it today and it seems to help with my energy level. Water was a struggle until I realized I could take more than 1 OZ of water at a time. I'm still not as hydrated as I would like, but am getting better.

Any signs of fever shortly post op is not a good thing. call your doctor and chances are they will want you to come in! Dehydration does not lead to a fever, dizzy yes fever no.. please call your doc!!

fluids as much as possible.

if it does not subside .. have your iron levels checked! you may need to double up on iron supplements if needed.
