What Causes Body Tremors After A Hip Replacement Surgery?
A month ago I had a hip replacement. All seemed to go well for 10 days or so. Then I developed a shakiness in the body and a weakness with a sense of nausea. I would at times find myself almost unaware of my surroundings. I obeyed all medicine suggestions--but, did wonder about he narcotic pain meds givenn. The IBS becomes worse and discomfort in the abdomen brought very well npleasant weakness. I will be having a colonanospy in 6 days. Figuring out how to get through this time is a concern.
