Advice/reassurance needed
My surgery experience to date has been a bit rocky. I had really bad problems with nausea but that's all passed and I've been feeling pretty decent all things considered.
Well today I kind of really took a massive step backwards. I'm still on full liquids but I'm having probs with having to run to the bathroom (initially I was constipated and now it's the opposite problem!) - so there's that. Did anyone else have this problem?
Of more concern is fainting. I blacked out once completely tonight for no apparent reason (I'm not dehydrated). It caught me off guard the first time it happened and now basically every time I stand up I feel like I'm going to pass out. I'm thinking it might be low blood pressure?
My husband is heading home now & we are going to check back in with the hospital where I had the surgery (as per my discharge instructions) but in the meantime if anyone can shed any light or relate to what's going on with me I would appreciate so much hearing from you!!
