I am two weeks post op and I am still very very tired. I can't get up in the morning with my alarm which is usually not an issue for me. Is that normal? If so, how long will this last? I could sleep anywhere at anytime. I don't like that!! Any insight would be appreciated.

I am only 4 days out and the tiredness is still plaguing me. I would also like to know from some veterans how long this lasts. I am planning to go back to work today and hopefully I can make it all day, but I am lucky that if j get tired, I can just tired and go home. Have so progressed to food with a little more nutrition yet?

It takes at least a month to get over the fatigue. Even though it may not seem like it,because of the small incision sites, we just had MAJOR surgery, it takes a while for our bodies to recuperate. In the first few weeks, it's important to follow what your body tells you it needs. Once you are able to get in more protein and fluids, it gets better quickly.

Yes very normal but it does change, probably in about 2 more weeks.... then your energy level will be ridiculous! You'll be like the energizer bunny. Good luck, stay positive, keep walking and drink that Protein and sips of Water -- very important!! and walk walk walk walk!

Oh my goodness, I only have 12 days including the day of surgery off from work. I sure hope I will be able to go back..I have a sit down office job..but still..lot's of work to be done...and I need my job. Although my boss is very understanding...I still have to be there.

I am back to work and it's ok. I'm just tired as all heck when I get home. You should be ok. I have an office job as well.

I had revision surgery on Monday. I am back to work today. I am a little tired, but nothing I can't handle. Gotta save those paid days off for vacations!
