10 days post op of Liposuction, I woke up shaking and on a drip as my BP drop. Is this normal?

SarahJane182Jun 22, 2014
I had lipo 10 days ago. under a general. woke up shaking and on a drip as my BP was low 80/25. I had a few doctors come to check my BP was increasing. By the next day it was almost normal so I was discharged. I asked my surge on my 1 week check up if all went well and he said yes, didn't mention why I needed a drip and BP monitoring. I'm just wondering if this is a normal thing to happen after lipo or if I went in to some sort of shock.

It is difficult to comment without at least pictures. In general however sculpting with liposuction and additional curves added using fat grafting can be done to enhance shape and provide a better silhouette of your body.
