Hot flashes?

I am 5 days post-op and have been getting crazy hot flashes at least once or twice a day. I don't have a fever...not diabetic or any other health issues, and I've been keeping up with my fluids. Is this normal?

      Your hormones are going haywire that's most likely the cause. Hopefully they level out soon, if not talk to your dr. I am always cold so I would enjoy a hot flash lol. Sent from my iPhone using

      Fat, particularly visceral fat, is an endocrine organ. You're losing it so you are having hormonal fluctuations.
