I am 9 days out from my surgery.. I will be feeling fine and just like a light switch is flipped I get sweaty, nauseous, dizzy... I lasts for a little while and then is gone... no rhyme or reason why or when it occurs. 

I have taken my blood sugar during these episodes and it is doing fine..

Anyone else experience this and please tell me it goes away soon  ...

Just a thought, have you checked your blood pressure? I had issues when it was getting too low.

If you have your own BP meter, take a reading while you are resting, either seated or lying down. Then stand up quick and take your BP immediately. If it drops a bunch, but comes back up within a minute or two, it's orthostatic hypotension. Easily fixed.

Like Emiepie, I had low blood pressure issues after surgery for a while too. It's not uncommon.

Google orthostatic hypotension.
