 not to get to graphic but I had surgery on friday and I have been dizzy and bloated .. I believe I am bloated due to lack of having a bowel movement.. is this all normal?

The bloat is from the gas they use to distend your abdomen so they can move around in there.  Get up and walk and hydrate, hydrate, hydrate.

Probably!  I can't remember the details of my recovery, but anesthesia may take a few days to get out of your system.

I hope everything starts, um, moving for you if you catch my drift!    Walk-walk-walk, sip-sip-sip certainly cannot hurt at this stage.  Feel better!

You know what the dizziness and the sweating is from? The Vagus nerves in the diaphragm. It's a Vasovagal syncope reaction most likely from your abdomen being "blown out" with CO2 gas.

The anesthetic bungs things up, too, so make sure you take a big ole poop soon!   

Classy, ain't I?

of course you should consult your surgeon ----- de-hydration can definitely lead to dizziness

sounds like you could possibly be dehydrated I had that problem and became dizzy and my bp went low.   Good luck & hope you feel better soon
