I see this is a bit of an older thread but thought I would share my experience. I had a breast lift and tummy tuck at the same time and felt the exact same way. Mine lasted several weeks though. My plastic surgeon attributed it to my blood loss. He said I also had a lot of bleeding during surgery and even though I wasn't anemic prior to surgery I certainly was afterward. The pain pills can also make you feel that way, if you are still taking pain medication. Also, if you are at all dehydrated.

Hope you are feeling better. Sorry I missed this thread before.
