Before surgery I was a lark owl (idk if that's a thing but I was just as happy to wake up early as I was staying up late.) Now that morning aspect is beyond gone. I struggle to get up and usually feel sick. Today I called in because I was sure I was going to pass out. I've been up for 2 hours and I'm starting to feel a little better.

Anyone else go through this? Do I just have to drag my feet through mornings now? I don't see my doctor or get lab results until the 2nd week of Feb.

I have never been a morning person, but it is so much harder for me to get up in the mornings now versus prior to my surgery. And i also feel a little sick as well. After i get up, take a shower and move around i start to feel better. There have been many times i have just wanted to call in.

Honestly, it took 2-3 months post op before I really felt fully human again. Stay hydrated, get plenty of sleep, it will get better.

Yup! I always got up at 5 or earlier and now I have to drag myself out of the bed at 6:30 when my daughter gets up. The struggle is real!

Prior to my surgery, all the post-op patients in my support group talked about how they immediately had so much energy. Yeah. I got none of that. [emoji849] I nap almost every day after work and sleep 12-16 hours on my days off.
