Awoke up from a nap today and my whole body felt like it was burning. So wierd. Anyone else experienced this? Surgery was last Thursday and I was wondering if it was part of healing process.

Burning sensations can sometimes occur during recovery, and it's completely understandable to feel concerned about new symptoms after surgery. This sounds like something worth discussing with your medical team, as they can properly evaluate what might be causing this feeling and provide guidance specific to your situation. Wishing you a smooth recovery, and hopefully other community members can share their experiences too.

Eleanor, call your surgeon's office and let them know. It could be an allergic reaction.

It went away and hadn’t had it since.
