Light headed and bruising x

Hello, just a few questions shrug

...feeling very light headed and spaced out still. Had my BA last Monday. I am on Erthomycin antibiotics( excuse spelling) could be those as I know they are not a nice tablet, but feel a bit floaty.Surely not GA effects still? Also haven't except for a teeny tiny black speck haven't got one bruise. My breasts are not painful , just ribs and achy back and arms a bit tender. Could I still bruise? Just wondering.

Hi Hun, its more than likey the antibiotics although. Ga can take a week to get out of your system that's why they encourage you to drink lots of water, help flush it out!
With my last lot of anti b I was really sick and was told to come off them. Maybe phone the clinic and let them know. How many more left have you got to take ? Also you should be having them with food x
Also strong pain meds codeine can make you feel really spaced out x

Are you taking any painkillers?? I felt very dizzy floaty and generally high while I was on the codeine and for a few days after I stopped taking them. Once they were out of my system I felt normal again. Are you eating properley? Sometimes if you are not eating enough you can feel dizzy.

The day after my BA I didn't notice any bruise, but on the 3rd/4th day I noticed bruising in between which lasted until around the 11th day post op.

I was also light headed couple days/weeks post op. whenever I'd stand up or walk for a long time i'd start to get light headed and had to sit to feel better. Don't know the explanation for it but it sounds normal.

All the other soreness /achiness sounds normal as well Hun! You'll start feeling your normal self soon! Keep healing well! Xx

Haven't taken any painkillers since yesterday ( paracetomol in the morning ), I guess it's probably a combo of everything, just thought I would ask , it's a bit like a hang over after a heavy session feeling X thanks girls, I think being here a bit inactive your brain goes overdrive!!!!

i think now you've stopped the heavy pain meds you should start to feel more like your old self... although anti-bs could be having an effect on how you're feeling, but you should be coming to the end of those too shouldn't you soon?

I think you've probably been very lucky with bruising Jacki, I was the same after my 1st BA, hardly marked at all Light headed and bruising x 184153

Tomorrow my last day of anti biotics I think, they are as big as tomb stones . My mum thinks it's those, and maybe a bit of fatigue. I think not being very active just gives you more time to think and analyse! Not good sometimes. But I love my new boobs so much , I am non stop checking myself out lol xx Stars

Hope you feel better today jakki. I didn't get any bruising. I never got antibiotics from the surgeon, wonder why? Did get a few injections though. I think once you start gettin up and moving about, then you start to feel a bit better. I felt a bit spaced out even 12 days PO, went to the shops and had to sit down on one of their chairs for sale Light headed and bruising x 375568

Hope you feeling better xx

Can't offer any help re erythmericin(?) as am allergic to it xx

Ah thanks Girls x yeah much better thanks, last day of antibiotics ( I started last tues, so quite a few!) , strange how some get them and some don't . Do you thinks it to do with having unders or overs? Not so light headed. Feeling better everyday, doing my head in not being able to clean up around the house and wash properly!! Thanks again :thumbs:

Glad you're feeling better Hun, no nothing to do with unders or overs it just depends on the surgeon and his aftercare. Hopefully once you've finished them you will begin to feel better still.
I love housework and I'm a bot OCD, think Monica from friends ... And it was driving me mad not being able to do things as my husband, bless him, even though he tries is not to my standard!
It's only for a few weeks then you can get back into it xx

It was like CSI in the bedrooms today!! Can't wait to get a good bit of hoovering in! Me the same Mrs Ball, I am sitting here grinding my teeth ha ha x

by **COOKIE** 15th October 2012, 10:52 am

*raises hand* another Monica here lol

It's just the worst isn't it haven't to let that control over your own home go out to other people. And as much as they try so hard to keep it clean, it's NEVER clean enough lol

But... The dust can wait, your cleaning can't sweetheart...maybe make a dental appointment to have those grinding teeth checked out hahahaha.

Glad you're doing much better now Jakki, once you get off that codeine you really do start to feel more like your old self don't you. Xx
