Inner Surfer Girl 12,015 Posted April 24, 2015 I am so sorry you are feeling down. I was sleeved on Monday and came home Tuesday. Fortunately, I haven't had any major issues (so far). Are you able to get your Protein and Water? Are you able to walk much? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JamieLogical 8,711 Posted April 24, 2015 I was very very fatigued for the first several weeks. The best thing you can do is try to get in your Protein and fluids. For me it didn't really improve until I was able to move onto more solid foods and get in more calories. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GEAUX SAINTS 143 Posted April 24, 2015 I hate to rain on your parade, but I felt exhausted, weak & dizzy until about 5 weeks out! Then I just woke up one morning and poof, I felt alive again! Try upping your Protein. It should help with your energy! Good luck to you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1SlimmerMe 122 Posted April 24, 2015 Definitely call your surgeon. I'm 3 weeks post op and went to see my PCP. She started B12 injections today, as I had been extremely exhausted. I am praying it helps! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LSF 264 Posted April 24, 2015 Have you started your Protein Drinks yet? I had a ton of energy the first 2 weeks after surgery while I was home recovering, once I went back to work and back to my 5-6 hours of sleep , I started getting tired again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
