Hi dearI understand your concern. Confusion is most likely due to post operative electrolyte imbalances. Low body temp. Has many etiology. In post operative period it is common. It depends upon several factors.Age is the most imp.Correction of electrolyte is must and 1st step.2nd step is looking for other factors. Blood and other investigation will give more ideaa.Consult your doctor and get help.Still if you have a query then feel free to ask.
