Nausea at 7 weeks after tkr

Posted , 4 users are following.

I've been experiencing nausea for the past 2-3 weeks. Pain medication very little now only paracetamol and the odd Targin when things get really sore. I'm a 70yo female, maybe age makes a difference, but why now? Perhaps the anesthesia has played some part.

    I would think that the anaesthesia has something to do with that if you had a general anaesthetic.

      NOT at 7 weeks. That would be out of your system in about 2-3 weeks. Perhaps, you've picked up a virus in your weakend state. That's more likely. Because if what you've been through you are mire susceptable to germs GOOD LUCK!

    How is your iron level wise? Probably wise to go to GP and have your iron levels checked maybe?
