Lost my drive!
Hi all,
I have a question for all you ladies. I am 5 1/2 weeks out from my surgery. I was scheduled to have TVH but I hemoraged at the end of surgery and ended up with a 10" incision and 4 units of blood. So I have had it a little harder than the norm. I am getting my strength back, and feeling better, but I have lost my drive to do much. I am an illustrator who works from home. I was use to putting in 15 hour days to meet deadlines. I haven't been able to make myself do any drawing. I love what I do, so what is wrong with me? I don't feel creative and seem to be struggling! Could it be my energy level or what? I just want to be able to get back to work and be productive again. Any suggestions?

Have you had a blood test since surgery to check your iron clevels? Anaemia would make you feel like this. Ask your doctor if you an unsure of any post-op blood work that was done.
