Asked By:janiceL81 in UK

Hi I had MOHs surgery 5 days ago on my forehead. It was removed in 2 stages. I haven't felt 100% since having it done. I didn't realise my scalp would feel numb afterwards but I now know this is normal however the feeling is weird and I do feel nauseous and groggy just not 100% is this a normal feeling? I don't feel up to working just yet either and this really isn't like me to feel this way. Everyday I do feel slightly better than the one before. Am I expecting too much too soon? Many thanks
