Normally lactating do not going to affect your health in such a serious way. Hence it is best to check with your doctor and not just assume that this is normal in your case. Please keep in mind that breast feeding is being regulated by hormones secreted by the hypothalmus and pituitary glands and removal/hysterectomy of the ovaries and/or the uterus does not affect your production of milk. It would not be necessary to be treated with medication to produce milk. Ovaries are necessary for pregnancy, but not for lactation. May be its happening due to several other reasons including your current mental stage after this surgery - psychological or other physical ailments.

If a woman is lactating when not pregnant, then she may have high levels of a hormone called prolactin. Prolactin is primarily responsible for the lactation response in women who are pregnant. However, if the levels of the hormone are abnormally high, then a woman's breasts can emit a milky substance. One of the most common causes of increased prolactin levels is a tumor in a small area inside the brain called the pituitary gland. The pituitary gland is responsible for the secretion of many hormones, prolactin being one of them. There are some medications which can cause increased prolactin levels as well, specifically psychiatric medications. So if a woman is lactating when not pregnant, a medical evaluation is in order as soon as possible.

Hormonal changes due to Histerectomy can cause these kind of symptoms. Im Some cases Histerectomy is read by the body differently and since its a process involving reproductive organs, lactation is possible. Your doctor must be able to provide you with a harmonious hormonal balancing mediation which can stop the lactation. Also, your body seems to have taken the histerectomy in a shocked manner, the reactions are in form of headaches, weakness and hot sweats. Sadly, some women do experience these side effects. But for most of them, they even out in a few months. I am hoping you will get well soon. Try to have a lifestyle involving a stroll around in a open park, preferably walking on grass, getting in a lot of fresh air, lots of rest, lots of sleep. A good friend or family member to keep you company. You will get over this soon
