It may not be lack of Vitamins but lack of hydration. It can even be low Protein. If none of those apply check with your doctor as you may be low in Iron.

I am going to get back on protein shakes tomorrow see if that helps

If not going to see my PCP on the 19th will ask him to run blood work

Thanks for advice shrinking peach

This happened to me. It was awful. I am now 11 weeks out an am starting to feel normal again. I am still tired, but certainly not to the extent that I was. I think it is the shock of surgery on the body and not being able to get many calories in

Yes I had this issue as well once I started drinking more I felt better also I was low on potassium but I have AFib so that may not be your problem I was told to try some low sugar orange juice and some mashed bananas which did actually help I actually had to force myself to get up and do things if even for a few mins at a time took all my energy to shower

a lot of things can go haywire after surgery and low cals, do get things checked like Iron as mentioned, but also consider thyroid and low blood pressure etc 0 go get some blood works and a general check up and keep up the protien and water :) All the best
