Are IV fluids dangerous after liposuction?

Mikal
I read that Iv fluids after lipo may increase the risk developing pulmonary edema and are contraindicated. I have IBD and i am always a little dehydrated. I will stay at an aftercare facility for the iv fluids overnight. The fat will be removed from my neck. Should i receive the fluids ? Thanks.
