I have experienced nightmares (or rather very strange dreams) several times due to a chemical imbalance. Fat cells contain chemicals and hormones that are stored in the cells. As you destroy these, you release them into your system. They are removed by your kidney and expelled from your body in your urine. Therefore it is important to flush them through your system by drinking an adequate supply of fluids. Filtered Water (instead of tap water) is good.

I had very weird dreams after surgery for about a week. So strange. They then subsided.

I'm remembering my dreams a lot better. I think I might be sleeping better

I feel like the nightmare phenomena might be associated with general anesthesia.

I know that Vitamin B6 can cause vivid dreams and nightmares.

B1 (thiamine) deficiency can can also cause dream issues

Or it could be a side effect from the anesthesia.

Perhaps check your vitamin intake.

Yep! Having very weird dreams (6days post OP)
