Is it normal to still feel tired 8 days after breast reduction surgery? I’m 49, went off pain meds 2 nights ago.

Your body will be using lots of energy to heal after your surgery, so yes tiredness is very common.  It also becomes more apparent as you start to feel less discomfort & this start to do more activitiy.  As long as your temperature is normal & your wounds look fine, then this is all part of the healing process.  All the best 

Hello and thank you for your question. Everyone reacts differently to anesthesia and the drugs can take some time to clear from your system. Make sure you continue to hydrate well, and continue to walk around. If you have any symptoms like chest pain, difficulty breathing, or soreness in your legs/calves make sure you see your surgeon immediately and/or go to the ER since the risk of blood clots in the legs is highest within 3 weeks after surgery.
