KathyS 0 Posted June 10, 2011 I am about 2 weeks post op and feeling okay. Trying to keep hydrated and keep food in is becoming difficult to do. Just found out that I am low in Iron. I've been very sluggish lately and it's difficult to get out of bed in the morning, but I am back at work. Will I feel better soon? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kellyw74 258 Posted June 10, 2011 I became anemic after surgery too! That was the worst feeling, especially not knowing why I felt so shitty! Get you some Iron pills and take them everyday. You will start to feel better in about 2 days! I take 325 mg of ferrous gluconate twice a day and a 30mg iron chew. It helps tremendoulsly! I am sure your dr. will give you something! Good luck!

Nancy Rivers 24 Posted June 10, 2011 Welcome to the forum and congratulations on getting your sleeve. I would contact your doctor and he should prescribe Iron for you. That should help with the tiredness. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
