I am pre-op and tired ALL the time. What can I do to give myself some energy?
I don't know if this is related to being obese or not, although my PCP seems to think it is. I am just tired all the time. Some days it is better if I get like 10 hours of sleep, but even then I can fall asleep at any time. I have this horrible time when I get home from school. Every single day around 5pm I find myself hardly able to keep my eyes open, and I can rarely escape taking a nap. I fall asleep in class almost every day. I can hardly study as much as I need to because I am just too tired. I am afraid I am going to fail all my classes because of this. My surgery is June 11, so I just hope that somehow I can get through this and that I will have tons of energy after surgery. Also, I am not clinically depressed and my thyroid is fine. Anyone have any ideas for getting energy? I am not allowed to have caffine, exercising does not help at all, and eating different foods at different times of day seems to make no difference. Help!!!
