What Causes Headache, Panic Attacks And Lightheadedness After Lithotripsy?
I had a kidney stone removed about 3 weeks ago under general anesthesia. Since then I have had a headache and bouts of lightheadedness. It has triggered an occasional panic attack. I am unsteady while standing and feel weak. I dont have a temperature and my urologist said there are no signs of problem. I have read of many others having similar symptoms after GA, is there anything I can do to minimize these symptoms

GA should not have much effects after 3 week of surgery.. Can take tab paracetamol for symptomatic relief.. It is safe for kidney patients.. If problem persists plz show a neurologist
