Can Anaesthesia Cause Weakness And Jitters With Weight Loss ?

2wks-again I had a hammertoe fixed. The toe is healing beautifully but I have no appetite, lost 13lbs, have weakness and jitters and heart flutters. The dr has put me on Prozac and Ativan as needed. Could this be a result of the anaesthesia that was used?
