What Causes Dizziness And Hot Flushes?

My 14 yr old daughter had gallbladder surgery Oct 17th and was 3 weeks prior without being able to keep food down since her original symptoms are gone but she is feeling HOT and dizzy and nearly blacking out when standing I was wondering if this could be from the GA or is this typical?

Hi.... this is not typical but at the same time I do not think that it is due to general anaesthesia. The symptoms which your daughter is experiencing are due to autonomic imbalance. She needs evaluation for this. I suggest you consult a pediatrician regarding this or even better choice would be a paediatric Endocrinologist.
