Jonesie,
It's hard to tell. Many unusual symptoms can occur after surgery. I personally believe that some of them can be attributed to the after effects of anesthesia; but especially the IV antibiotics.
Antibiotics can create Herxheimer reactions. As well, they can kill bloodstream bugs, but after they (administration of IV or oral) stop, can allow other bugs to wake up.
I am not saying this happened, just suggesting this is a real phenomenon and well-documented. Perhaps it is more likely if you've had infections and/or antibiotics earlier in your life.
Do you experience other symptoms as well? E.g., nausea?
