Tired

I'm 13 days out and I seem to be getting more tired not less. I'm taking Centrum Silver in the morning, and calcium at lunch and dinner. I haven't supplemented with iron yet. My nut told me to wait and see. Could I be anemic already?

13 days is too close to surgey still, it could be a myriad of reasons that you're tired. I agree with the nut- give it time. 

I stayed home for 3 weeks, and didn't feel normal till the third week.

I did not take iron for the first six years.  You might need more water and more rest this soon after surgery.

Water and rest. You had major surgery!

I was tired until around day 20 . Had my rny may 3 and just now feel back to normal . It's normal 

Just wanted to add.... This process is ALOT of learning to listen to our bodies. If your tired , rest. Don't feel guilty or bad about it. You will feel better soon

While I was surprised at how great I felt after 1 week, I took an afternoon nap daily for at least 2 more weeks... and I am NOT a napper....

Water can make a huge difference. Your body is adjusting and trying to figure out what is going on. It is OK....

Is one Centrum Silver enough? We are supposed to get 200% of most vitamins. Are you taking 2? Also it has very little B-12. Most people do supplement with B-12 as well. Buy sublingual, that goes under your tongue.

I didn't know I was supposed to take 2 Centrums. My nut didn't like Centrum because it doesn't have iron and wants me to do Bariatric Advantage. I'm not willing to spend that money when I can get what I need from Centrum. I just now took a second one.

My nut told me to do B12 sublingual lay 3times a week, so I've been doing MWF. 

I took a long nap yesterday and it helped. I'm going to just keep taking it easy.

Centrum SIlver doesn't have iron, but other Centrum types should. I have gone through menopause so I know my Doc told me I don't need as much iron. Still something you have to watch though on your blood work.
