How long will I feel like I need a nap. When is the energy going to kick in??? First day back to work and I miss my bed so bad!

I battled serious fatigue for a solid 8 weeks post-op. I took six weeks off from work, and the first two weeks back were tough in the afternoons. During those 6 weeks off, I took a nap every afternoon.

At 5 weeks I was feeling like my old self again... but I had pretty much a picture perfect recovery. Give yourself time, you'll get there!

I'm 4 weeks post op today and I feel like a million bucks. The fatigue stopped at about 2.5 weeks for me. I'd feel even better if I was sleeping well.

Yeah I wish I was there.. I fight being tired but no choice.

I feel the same. I have no energy. I was sleeved on 4/27 and I feel exhausted all the time. I was pretty active in working out prior now I go to walk or treadmill or try elliptical and I'm so exhausted. Wondering when will my energy return
