Success2013 186 Posted February 17, 2013 My energy is getting worse at 1 month after surgery. I'm taking my B12 and multi Vitamin, I drink an average of 40 ounces of Water and average 60-70 grams of Protein. But by lunch time it's torture to stay awake. I have so much I need to do! Any ideas? I thought about energy drinks or even possibly asking my endocrinology doctor if its ok for me to take the diet pills he prescribed last year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LifetimeLoser 208 Posted February 17, 2013 I'm not quite at 1 month yet, but my nutritionist and nurse say this is the norm. They say people usually complain about fatigue about a month out. Supposedly, this time is the worst so good news it will get better! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
