Post Op Morning Blues

I am exactly three weeks out from my surgery and aside from the fact that I have essentially hit my entire life with a Mack Truck I am slowly adjusting to my new life. There is someting that has be bothering me though. Every morning from about 6am until 11am I feel really cruddy. I have zero energy, I have trouble focusing on work, I have a much harder time drinking fluids without getting neasous, and overall I just feel unfocused and yucky. Has any one else experienced this?

Yes. I'm 12 days out and I have the same problem. It sucks. Someone on this forum suggested upping my protein intake to give me more energy. Plus, keeping a regular exercise program. My problem, besides being tired and cruddy, is that I am not hungry or thirsty at all. I'm very unmotivated.

I felt that way, had my surgery june 4th. I was so tired people at work would comment on it. That I looked about ready to faint. Had the water nausea too. what went down came back up. Once your body adjusts and you keep getting the vitamins in and the protein It will pass and you will begin to feel much better.

How are you feeling? any better?

Thank you for asking. I am a bit better. They ended up temporarily increasing my antidepressant to help me cope. It has been working pretty well. I am glad though that the post op stuff is temporary and will resolve. It will be nice to feel normal again (or rather a new normal).

I'm not sleeved but someone on here said they drink extra water before they go to bed and it helped them w the sick feeling in the mornings ..u could give it a try
