Hi
Welcome to Healthcaremagic
You need to have pelvic examination again by a gynecologist to look for healing of wound and to rule out infection. Also get one ultrasound done for uterine size, retained products and collection. Dizziness and weakness could be due to anemia. Keep on taking iron and calcium supplements. take care.
