8 Reasons you feel so tired after your total knee replacement surgery.
8 Reasons You Get Tired So Fast After My Total Knee Replacement
Difficulty Sleeping
Sleep disturbances is part of the recovery process. I have been a licensed physical therapist since 2006 and over that time I have never met a patient who told me he was sleeping like a baby the day after surgery.
Most patients are struggling to get comfortable and manage the soreness weeks and even months after surgery.
If you can’t sleep you can be sure that you will feel fatigued during the day.
Dietary Changes
After a total knee replacement surgery, you may experience a loss of appetite or nausea. It is common to experience constipation and/or diarrhea. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms you are not likely eating as well as you normally would. This lack of nutrition may affect your energy levels.
I also know many patients who are diabetic may be experiencing difficulty managing blood sugar levels after surgery. The stress of surgery, lack of sleep, and pain are all factors that could raise blood sugar levels.
