still feeling tired
Hi. I am 46 and had a heart attack on Nov.19 2005. I have gone through rehab and I try to exersice as much as 30 min. every other day. my question is does anyone feel tired most of the day? I get 8hrs if not more of sleep a night and still I cant get my butt out of bed in the morning like I use too. I have a tendencey to yawn all day and I feel like taking a nap during the day. I dont know if its my meds but being this long I feel as though I should be adjusted to them by now. I might be board and I know I feel depressed at times and that can make a person tired but I still dont think I should be feeling this tired. So I was woundering if this is normal? and if anyone else feels this way???? Take Care to everyone!!!Dana
Have you talked to your doctor about this. The yawning could be lots of things, one would be needing oxygen so maybe you should just get it checked out. Also gall bladdar will sometimes cause yawning and upset tummy and you just need know if its something simple or something that needs treated. Depression seems to be normal for heart bypass folks and many of us have been treated for that. It is a scary feeling and the thoughts that fill you heard can be pretty bad. The medications work pretty good if you get the right ones and talking about it helped me. A little hard on your loved ones but seems to me they are going to give you the most support and that's who I shared with most of the time and then this group was a great help to me. Good Luck, Ann
