I would definitely have it checked out. Although anesthesia will decrease your blood pressure, it should not keep it that low for that long. Please have it checked out.

Being under the weather especially being under anestesia will cause your blood pressure to be lower, even after 3 days. Make sure that you are getting plenty of rest and are eating. You need to also move around and not just stay in bed all day long. Its important that you get up and walk. Also, if you're taking your pressure at home, those aren't always 100% accurate and you could possibly not have the cuff on correctly and getting an off reading. But if thats not the case, give it another couple days and if its still really low, you could be anemic and need to call your doc. But definately make sure you're getting plenty of fluids and food.
