      A lot of the time, dizziness can be attributed to dehydration – this can hopefully be avoided by ensuring adequate fluid intake

      Other than this I can only think that perhaps the surgery may have involved a part of your body that is involved in how we become dizzy such as the brain

      I would say that the after effects of anaesthetic given during the operation can give dizzy side effects.
