I wonder if, especially with her age, the surgery was long enough, and the anesthesia deep enough, to have caused oxygen deprivation to her brain.
Her symptoms sound very similar to what happens to patients after open-heart surgery, and that has definitly been linked to the oxygen deprivation. This may be too simplistic a guess, but sometime the simplest ideas are on target. "Extreme" nutrition should also be encouraged.

A energetic never sick extremely active woman of 68 years recently underwent a complete hysterectomy; within two weeks of surgery she is now depressed has no appetite and has extreme shakes.... she has never had any surgery's' before and it was her first time ever in a hospital. Her doctors are at a loss.... she keeps losing weight; her life is slowly seeping away. Has anyone heard of anything like this? I believe the surgery was prompted because of a sys or tumor on her ovaries. Appreciate any input. thanks connie
