"HYRTRORECTOMY WITH FIBROID REMOVAL " do you mean a hysterectomy?
Can I ask if you've had hormone therapy or hormone problems since the procedure?
Have you noticed any changes in your personality? such as mood swings?

There is a possibility that the anaesthetic could have affected you, but after 5 days, that
small amount of anaesthetic will be out of your system. I presume you had an abscess or something in the root of the tooth and this is quite toxic stuff. If some was lost to the
blood stream during the procedure then you could become quite ill and should be on
antibiotics. Your GP should have taken blood tests by now to establish if you have an
infection or toxins in the blood. If he hasn't, change him for someone half decent.
