    Can the IV drip we get before surgery cause vertigo attack? For example before cataract surgery? That's probably a dumb question but when I think of IV I think of saline/salt/sodium. Thanks.

    Absolutely not dumb, verti...
    I had a lot of iv infusions after two accidents and a bowel occlusion surgery.
    Absolutely nothing happened.
    Of course something can happen, but as my doctor said: you will always know afterwards.
    I think the best preparation is to be as calm as possible.
    Best wishes

    Thank you! I guess I worry too much.

    Worries and anxiety come along with MD, I'm afraid... We have to find our individual coping strategies. Don't give in!
