Is It Normal To Have Dizziness, Blurred Vision And Lightheadedness After Having A Complete Hysterectomy?

I had a complete hysterectomy two weeks ago. Occasionally, I get blurred vision, light headedness, dizziness, and break out in a sweat. This only lasts a few minutes. Each time this happens I check my blood pressure and it perfect. What could be causing this. I m very worried, concerned, and nervous. Thank you in advance, J

Hello,
Welcome to HCM,
The symptoms you are experiencing may be due to two reasons:
1.Anaemia (decreased hemoglobin (Hb) level in the body) due to blood loss during hysterectomy surgery.
2.Hypoglycemia (decreased blood sugar levels in the body).
So,i would advice you to check blood sugar levels and also do Hb% report as soon as possible in order to confirm the diagnosis.
Eat foods rich in iron like green leafy vegetables and take adequate iron supplements.
Hope you are satisfied with the answer.
Thank you
