Report Abuse. people shiver after surgery is because of anesthesia. Neck/shoulder area become sore after surgery because of postioning during surgery and the fact that you have to stay still during the few hours of surgery.inally, if the surgery was laparoscopic (vs. open surgery), the gas placed in your body to allow the surgeon to visualize the area for surgery will to some degree get trapped inside the body & will manifest itself quite frequently as shoulder pain.
Shortly after I was awakened I could not stop shivering/shaking. It was getting worse, so I asked the nurse who was standing next to me to please get me something for it. She piled blankets all over me to try and warm me up, but it was not doing the trick.I did not feel 'cold' but the shivering would not stop.I thought maybe my body was in shock because of the surgery, but for some reason I think there might have been a different explanation. Eventually she medicated me through the IV (as far as I can remember) and the shaking immediately ceased. taste of morphine will stop the shakes. It happens once in awhile to some of our post cath patients after concious sedation with Fentanyl and Versed. Just a tiche of MS (2 or 3 mgs) stops it almost immediately. Don't ask me why......
