    Visual problems and lightheaded

    I had my DaVinci surgery on 8/23.  I have been lightheaded daily since.  It's not 24/7 but it's enough that I am ffearful of driving.  My BP is normal and I am eating appropriately.  it is very random and inconsistent.  I spoke to my gyn/once about it at my post op and he referred me to my PCP.  I also saw spots daily for about a week post surgery.  That has stopped but i am having difficulty reading and my vision is not as clear as it was pirior to the surgery.  Its kind of like my glasses aren't helping as much anymore.

    No Vision Problems

    I had a Davinci assisted total hysterectomy on Sept. 8 with absolutely no problems at all.  My sight remains the same.

    no lightheadedness, nothing.  Perhaps there is another cause?  Hopefully, you'll find the cause and solution soon.  

    Heal well!
