Is It Normal To Feel Lightheaded After Being Sedated During Surgery?

I had a molar extracted a couple of days ago and I was under sedation during the surgery. Is it normal to feel light headed a couple of days after the fact? I haven't been doing a whole lot. Tried to get out today a it felt a little uneasy? Figured that it must be the medications also.

the cause of your headache is unlikely to be related to the sedation for the surgery.. it can be caused by dehydration (if you're not eating or drinking much after the molar extraction), or headache cause by the molar pain
