Hi, i had a hysterectomy 3 months ago and a couple of weeks ago i fainted. now i constantly feel lightheaded, can't sleep very well and get really hot?

See your surgeon: Without knowing more , its difficult to give you a complete answer. However, if you constantly feel lightheaded and have fainted, it would be best to see your surgeon and make sure everything is ok.
