I doubt they will put you on bed rest just cause you have no energy but then again I'm not a doctor either. Its part of being pregnant. I quit my job cause all I did was sleep and throw up my first trimester and I'm still fatigue at 17 weeks. I know everyone cant do that but maybe cutting back on hours if possible may help. Talk to your doctor and see what they say. Good luck.

Okay so I went to my Ob today and got sent to the ER to get fluids. In dehydrated my blood pressure is low and to top it off I have a UTI. They are going to give me an IV at home, waiting on approval from insurance.

Take care yourself. Dehydration will happen a lot if you don't keep fluids in ya. Trust me...I deal with it a few times a month and usually can get myself back on track. Few times I've needed a IV. Good luck and try as hard as you can to get fluids in.

I'm sorry you're feeling so drained. I felt the same way but my issue was low Iron. I now get Iron infusions 3x/week. Hope you feel better soon.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
