why am i so weak?

ok its been 5 weeks and i still is very weak i have to make myself get out of bed please tell me what to get to make me feel better i went and got a b12 shot still nothing i feel like nothing i am eating nor drinking is helping PLEASE HELP............... WANDA

Hang in there Wanda...It was week 8 before I felt human again. It took me a while to get my stength back. Take your vitamins and I found that taking hot showers drained me...seems the ho****er made my blood pressure drop drastically. Once I figured out cooler water helped I was good to go. I had to have my appendix out 8 months after Lap RNY and had the same issues with being weak. I think the anesthisia just takes it's toll on some of us moreso than others. Prayers! ~L~

Wanda listen you've just had two major surgeries close together plus you aren't able to eat very much at this point. You are going to be weak but it will get better. Hang in there and take good care of yourself. Debbie

I hope you feel better Tiffany.

Wanda, Saturday will be 4 months for me, and while I have more "everyday" energy than I have had for a long time, when I exert myself, I am wiped out. Baby Steps girl!! How are you feeling otherwise? Tami

Hey, even with your extra surgery you are on schedule. Last week I could hardly get out of bed. I had more energy week 2. I asked the doctor about it, well the office, and was told this is normal. Some of us need more rest then others. They said when someone goes back to work, sometimes they send a request that the person is allow rest periods when they need it for up to 3 months. Someone resently posted on body hybernation which makes sence. Keeping a diary of my day, I discovered if I eat every 3 hrs I do better energy wise than if I eat 3 meals a day. I don't know if that will help you. I'm happy, I've had 2 days in a row with energy this wee****ep having to remind myself. I'm only 5 weeks out. Its not that long.
