Crazypants 36 Posted June 16, 2013 Is your Iron okay? I was so exhausted so took someone's advice on here and took an Iron supplement... Woke up the next morning completely refreshed! Wishing you luck and energy! 1 getlownurse reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vegasneon 181 Posted June 16, 2013 I was sleeved a week after you and I'm having the fatique issue too. I started with extra Iron 2 days ago but so far nothing. I do some housework and get so tired I take a break, over and over. I'm disappointed in how little I get done. Monday I go back to work, hopefully that will help perk me up.

Ladydawg2009 39 Posted June 16, 2013 took about 6 weeks for me. Sometimes I still wake up tired though. Try the sublingual B12. Its helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Catherine707 253 Posted June 16, 2013 I am 3 weeks post op and I have been struggling with fatigue too. I also caught an upper respiratory infection in the hospital and that impaired my rest and sleep for the first week post-op. I talked with my Dr's office and they suggested boosting my Protein from 60 grams to 90 grams. That seems to have helped a little, but like you I can't even think about going back to work in this condition. I hope the fatigue eases in the next few days.... good luck and let us know if you find any of the suggestions helpful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
