It may depend on your age. My mom had confusion after a surgery. Her doc told me it can take 2-3 weeks to fully clear the anesthesia and up to twice that for an older person. Her surgery was the week before Thanksgiving (mid November) and by Christmas i could see her fog clear.
I am pretty young (25) so I think it's less likely of a factor. But good to know and prepare for the possibility of being foggy for a while!
