Dame21 23 Posted May 12, 2021 Hi all, I'm about 2 weeks post op and can't sleep. It take hours to fall asleep and I wake up constantly. Is this normal?? I'm averaging 4 hrs sleep daily.Sent from my moto g play (2021) using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SummerTimeGirl 582 Posted May 12, 2021 Haven't been through it yet myself but have seen several threads about the same thing lately and so it does seem normal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SoulGardener 101 Posted May 29, 2021 I did that too until I got a prescription for Trazadone 150 mg. Has made a huge difference - sleep like a fat little babe ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HealthyLifeStyle 351 Posted May 29, 2021 I was on Trazadone before the WLS and it made me gain a lot of weight. You could be experiencing anxiety? Check with your doc. There are lots of meds for it that don't make you gain weight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soon2bFit21 109 Posted May 29, 2021 Happened to me as well and didn’t get better until about a month post Op.Low calories and stress to the body can cause insomnia. I’d try a higher dose of melatonin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
