6 Days Post OP and just now dizzy?

Hey all,

I am at home and experiencing a new symptom: less pain in head, greater motion in neck but now a little tiny bit of blurry vision, and dizzy especially when upright.

Is this normal?

I didn't have these symptoms right after surgery just now.

My wound looks great, pain controlled by two ibuprofen and sometimes a fexeril, and I take prilosec 20 mg 2x per day, and 300 mg Zantac as per Drs orders .

So, I seem to be improving in every other way except that

Thank you Emmaline! It comes and goes…:slight_smile: no additional pain, swelling or anything.

I had a laundry list of on and off symptoms during recovery.

If you’re not having any more pain you may be ok. Anything that’s worrisome, please call the on call NS to ask. Better to be safe than sorry. Hang in there, there will be up and down days as you recover, that’s completely normal.

Emmaline, How long until all your symptoms were gone? I was great after surgery but around week 10 things changed. I started back to work and I’m not sure if I’m doing too much or if my symptoms are coming back for good.
