ShoppGirl 5,035 Posted May 11, 2022 I was really tired for a while. I just gave in and took naps. I wanna say it was a couple weeks out before I stopped napping at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShoppGirl 5,035 Posted May 11, 2022 When I started getting dehydrated my doctor arranged for me to get fluids as an outpatient. I got a couple bags and I felt sooooo much better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lizonaplane 1,613 Posted May 12, 2022 You're 7 days post op!!! You just had major surgery. You can't expect to be a ball of energy LOL! Go easy on yourself, and definitely make sure you're getting in your fluids. I didn't go back to work for two weeks, and I was working at home. When I went back to work at 2 weeks I still needed a lie down in the afternoons. By week five I was back on the road flying cross country for work. You'll get there. BTW, I'm 8 months out and I never have felt MORE energy than before surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
