mrsnate 55 Posted May 9, 2012 I've always been a very pale, but I've had 3 people today tell me how white I look! I'm 10 days out...is this normal? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
topgun 63 Posted May 9, 2012 You're still recuperating from major surgery. 10 days out is still in the ealry stages of recuperation so being pale shouldn't be alarming unless you have other symptoms. If you're concerned you should call your doctor, that's why they get the big bucks! I hope all is well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mews 37 Posted May 9, 2012 My students said I looked like "death washed over" until about a month after surgery (around the time I started mushies). I think it's normal due to the low amount of calories we intake immediately after surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fluffylibra30 323 Posted May 9, 2012 Yeah I did too. That's all my boss and mother in law would say to me. It got on my nerves, I started tanning lol. Only bad vice I have now. It helped me feel warm also cause I woke up from surgery cold. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrsnate 55 Posted May 9, 2012 I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one! I hate feeling so tired and looking so pale, but I know this will pass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
