dizzy & light headed Hysterectomy Recovery (post hysterectomy) I am 6 weeks post op. Had LAH with ovaries left in. I have been experiencing dizzyness and lightheadedness since the surgery.

Understanding the Context

I started low dose estrogen about as I am also having hot flashes. I had blood work done this past week and all was normal. I had a setback the day after surgery. Went back to hospital for 5 days ...

Key Insights

Walking? Yeah, I get lightheaded at about the 20-30 minute mark, but I'm an idiot and I keep going. I generally walk about 30-40 min in the morning and again in the afternoon. Since I started bleeding I've cut this back to one walk in the morning only, same length of time. My poor dh tried to help me out, but he got all queasy and lightheaded in the drs office while she was showing him what to do.

Final Thoughts

Glad your husband can do yours! At my last drs visit, she called a colleague in to consult.
