: Although your description is vague, it sounds like you are experiencing vertigo. This is not secondary to the anesthesia, but might be due to newer medication, an inner ear infection (labyrinthitis), or changes in blood pressure, glucose levels, or even anemia (?post-op bleeding). Contact your doctor ASAP. Do not drive until stabilized.
