Hi,

You are putting yourself to the risk of brain damage by using bath salts after having undergone a brain surgery. If it is necessary for you to be up and about and you need something for that, then in my opinion you should ask your doctor if you can take melatonin. It will be much safer than bath salts or other substances of abuse. But do not take anything without informing your doctor.

Best wishes.
