5 days post general anesthetic and still dizzy

[had-enough]

Is it normal to feel dizzy 5 days after GA for multiple extractions?

Im so dizzy and when i tried to drive my eyes were so blurry and i struggled to focus.

Please tell me its normal?

I think you need to see someone. You shouldn't be dizzy from the GA 5 days after having it. I think you have been on antibiotics and they can make you feel off it and dizzy. I would go and see either the dentist or your doctor and ask them to check you out.

Its not constant dizziness its on and off. Like ill be feeling great and do something and all.of a sudden im dizzy
Im on two lots of antibiotics and alot of pain meds. Still feeling terribly rough and totally didnt expect this to happen

Sometimes the after effect are worse than the actual procedure and when antibiotics get involved they can play havoc with us.

I hope you feel better soon, if you don't pick up or are still worried then please see a dentist or doctor.

If you are on opiate pain meds (Percocet, OxyContin, etc.) they can cause dizziness and nausea and it is also not recommended that you drive when you are on them. 5 days post- extractions, you may find that ibuprofen and/or Tylenol (paracetamol) may be enough.
