I'm 4 days post op and I'm feeling very weak and lightheaded. I feel like I'm not all there. And my hands are shaky. I had lipo on stomach and back and fat transfer to hips. I'm taking antibiotics and just Advil for pain. I contacted my Drs office and they said its normal and just drink a lot of fluids. Should I be more concerned??

Answer: Lightheaded after liposuction If you are feeling weak and lightheaded after liposuction it is possible that you are anemic.Your hemoglobin and hematocrit should be checked to determine if you would need an iron supplement especially if you’ve had a significant amount of fat removed during the procedure.
