Hi, it is only 3 weeks passed, and it appears that you are having all the movements. In my openion at least 8 weeks should be crossed before you do all the movements. You do restricted movements, and do some physiotherapy, for making the limbs suitable for weight bearing. Thank you.

Hi, thanks for writing to HCM.
Dizziness is not a normal symptom. It is seen in many conditions like Heart related conditions, stroke, Transient ischemic attacks, Middle ear infections, panic disorders, Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo etc.
So, a detailed clinical examination by a physician along with appropriate investigations may help in establishing a diagnosis of your condition.
Hope this information is helpful. Good day
