Could be normal.: It takes several weeks to recover from surgery. These symptoms you describe may or may not be normal. Did you see the doctor with these complaints or just talk to him? You really should see him. If you are not happy, get a second opinion. Can't hurt.

Maybe not: I would recommend going back to your primary care doctor to consider further testing.
