Sleeping alot

Is anybody out there experiencing lack of energy and an urge to sleep more? I am just exhausted and haven't really done anything out of the ordinary. I'm taking my vitamins but I've been slack on the protein supplements. Could that be it? Cheri

I only get tired when it comes to house work All jokes put to the side. I would call your surgeon and see about getting your blood work done and seeing what's up. Might be low in B12 or something else. Donna 338/157

If you aren't getting enough protein you most definatly will be lacking in energy and sleeping a lot. I was very bad at getting my protein this last summer and I slept most of the summer away, as well as almost passing out because I was so weak. Please Please take my advice and get all that protein in. There really is a reason they have you take it. It took me a long time to find some I liked. But once I did things have improved tremendously. Not that you don't need blood work also, you could be low in iron or Vit B also. I just am sharing what happened with me. Good luck. Cindy G.

Thanks Donna and Cindy. I PROMISE I WILL GO TO MY DOC AND GET SOME BLOODS DONE. I'm almost positive its the protein that I've been skipping. BAD BAD BAD Cheri.

You need to have lab work done. Make sure that your Ferretin level (free iron) is checked as well. Are you losing hair? Make sure you take your vitamins and are eating protein. Are you taking a supplemental B12 as well? You may need to do that as well. Good luck Barbara
