Small pity party

So i'm celebrating my own pity party today. I don't know why, but it seems like after surgery, I feel a lot worse than before. I'm always sick - either pukey, or extremely tired, or my back hurts, or its something else. I see everyone around here feeling so much better after surgery. They have all this energy they don,'t know what to do with and I just can't relate. I'm constantly tired. I always can take a nap. I can sleep 10 hours and still be tired. I'm taking my vitamins (my doc has me on iron, vit-c, multivit and b12) and i'm getting in all the liquids. I admit that I don't always pick the right foods to eat but I can't feel this lousy just because i don't always eat the way I should, right? 

Am i alone here? I hate feeling so awful.

Please spay and neuter your pets!

I'm sorry you're not feeling better than you are.  I remember feeling better in "waves"  sort of like I'd feel good for a short while, and then a long stretch where I felt exhausted and seemed to dump after anything I ate.  I think the first year after surgery is sort of up and down - at least it was for me.   I hope you'll soon get all your energy and start feeling great!

I am always tired too. But I think it is my depression that causes that. Now that my meds are finally working I am less tired, and find myself wanting to wake up earlier in the day. And I have more energy. I hope you can get yours figured out. Hang in there.

Hugs,
Lori

when did you have a full set of labs done?
I think I would do that ASAP and then consult with VitaLady to get right with the vits....maybe some minor tweaking could help...sure can't hurt!

Feel better!

hi Peach! They won't run labs until 6 months out and I'm only 4 months. I do go to my weight loss surgeon on 1/6 so I'll ask them then.

Hope you're well!

I would definitely request FULL labs....then when you get the numbers....share them here with me and I'll see what I can find out for you....

I am well, thank you for saying that!  I'm glad Christmas is over though
