Exhausted every day
Hi all,
I'm 41 and 4 months post op from a hysterectomy to remove over 10 fibroids. I know that 4 months is not a long time and that fatigue is still a symptom in recovery for awhile. So most likely this is all just exhaustion from healing. But I was always tired before my hysterectomy and thought it was the fibroids draining my energy, but I still feel the same now with them gone.
Things I've looked into: Before my hysterectomy my bloodwork was all good. Only thing that was low was Vitamin D. I take 300 mg of Wellbutrin and 37.5 mg of Efexor and thought maybe taking them in the morning was causing mid day crash, but when I take them at night I'm still crashing around noon, except now I'm waking up at 3 am. Oops. So I gotta switch back to morning. Before surgery I did a sleep apnea test and I do not have sleep apnea. I've looked up perimenopause symptoms and I'm not experiencing anything except exhaustion.
I am hoping its just the 4th month recovery fatigue, but I just kinda feel the same as I did before surgery energy-wise. I'd love to hear other people's stories and any advice you might have. Thank you <3
