Knee Arthroscopically Scoped To Remove Pseudo Gout And Repairing Of Meniscus. Why Nauseated?

I am 50 years old. Today I had my right knee arthroscopically scoped to remove what I was told was pseudo gout and repairing of a meniscus . I was under general anesthesia and now about 7 hours post-op my heart feels like it is racing. I have felt my pulse and it seems to be normal. I am also feeling a little light headed and nauseous. What should I do to relieve these aggravating symptoms?
