Two weeks post tummy tuck I have had no issues with recover other than I’m exhausted all of the time I do laundry, light cleaning and cooking but I am so tired all the time
Answer: Tired Tummy Tuck This is very normal to feel after a tummy tuck. It can give you a post depression.It's important to take naps throughout the day as your body is still recovering. I would increase protein to 150 grams a day. This will help you feel better. I also would advise your plastic surgeon so that he can tell you what to follow as well. Every surgeon has different post op instructions.

Answer: 2 weeks post tummy tuck and I’m so tired. Is that normal? it is not unusual to feel a little tired for 6 weeks after this type of surgery. Occasionally tiredness can be due to a low haemoglobin due to blood loss during surgery and I would advice you see your PS to have a blood test to rule this out.

Answer: Tired after tummytuck It’s not surprising to feel a little tired after a major procedure like a tummytuck. You will typically lose a little blood during the procedure which can tire you out a bit. It also takes a while to get over the effects of general anesthesia. I also caution my patients about too much too soon. It sounds like you are experiencing a normal recovery from a tummytuck. If you have any concerns then I would call your surgeon’s office to be seen or speak to a nurse. Good luck with the rest of your recovery!! Best regards.

Answer: Tired all the time Congratulations on your surgery! It's wonderful to hear that you are recovering so well, but healing takes a lot out of your body. It is typical that your energy level is lower at the beginning. It will slowly be restored as you continue to heal. Follow the advice of your surgeon, get adequate rest, and eat a balanced diet and you'll be feeling better soon.
