Dizziness and blackouts 6-8 weeks after spinal fusion . Is this common after such surgeries or one should contact the surgeon . The surgery was fine and I am still recuperating and not doing much walking or exercise. But whenever I try to walk I feel very sizzy and have fainting spells. Can you please answer if this is common. Thank you
Thanks for your query it is not common to have dizziness and fainting spell after spine surgery. There could be a possibility of having postural hypotension as you have these symptoms only on walking it is advised to get examined by your family doctors you speedy recovery
