littlelamb3 16 Posted October 14, 2016 I am 52, my sleeve was in August. I had no complications. I am still feeling very tired even though I take all my Vitamins. Yesterday I laid down for a bit at 3 pm and I did not wake up until 12 hours later I did not even wake up during that time. I am not new to fatigue as I had my thyroid removed last summer for cancer, but this is just ridiculous. I had more energy when I weighed 50 lbs more was raising a toddler and working full time . Yes, I was younger, but at 52 I should not be feeling like this. I recently saw my endo and she said my blood work looked good. I also make sure I am taking in the Protein and I drink plenty of Water. I am not sure what is going on. I would think that after 8 weeks I would have more energy.

heidikat72 935 Posted October 14, 2016 i struggled with fatigue through month 3. and as counterintuitive as it sounds, what seems to have finally gotten me through is to literally just power through and amp up your exercise even when you feel too tired to exercise, do it anyway.

Like what were the blood test looking for? Are you having any other symptoms? Foggy headed or achy? *shrugs* could be something totally unrelated to the wls.. G'luck!

littlelamb3 16 Posted October 14, 2016 I see my endo every 3 months and get blood work done to check thyroid hormone levels and she also checked B 12 and Vitamin d. She said all looked good. I have not felt normal since having my thyroid taken out last summer though. I am 52, my sleeve was in August. I had no complications.

Wendyfm 494 Posted March 27, 2017 Are you on any blood pressure meds. I had a similar issue about one month after surgery and it was because o was on blood pressure meds still and my blood pressure was too low. Once I stopped the meds my blood pressure went up and I was less fatigued. 1 jbalest519 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
