why am i not tired?
I've been very good about taking it easy, walking around a little bit each day just to move the gas around, but naps seem to be impossible. I can sleep a full 8 hours at night, but through the day I am wide awake. Is this normal?

Re: why am i not tired?
I was the same way although I did have some insomnia at night for about a week or so after the surgery. I never had the overwhelming fatigue that most ladies on here experienced. Consider yourself lucky but make sure you don't do too much. I spent a lot of time reading in bed and playing on the computer.

Re: why am i not tired?
I haven't had a nap yet, even with having had two surgeries the last 25 days. Even on my days after insomnia I can't sleep during the day.
Most of my day since I returned home Tuesday night has been laying or sitting in a bed. Just taking it easy with TV, books and my laptop.
Happy Healing!

Re: why am i not tired?
I think it's fine! Just listen to your body. I've napped and not napped. Gone to bed at 7:30pm and my normal 10pm. I have been just trying to listen to my body and do what it tells me it needs!

why am i not tired?
I am 2 1/2 weeks post op lavh, i hear u on the not tired thing, sometimes i actually have felt wired, i think its cuz our bodies are less busy than usual, i think it could be due to hormonal changes, i kno ive never rested so much in my whole life! I kno when i push it, my body tells me, more abdominal soreness and discharge increases, i have had moments of total exhaustion during the day tho and then i nap for one to two hours

Re: why am i not tired?
I have had a boost of energy since having LAVH. I am not tired at all and feel amazing (aside from serious constipation). I have been VERY bored and am finding it difficult to take it "easy". Especially since I'm not feeling any associated pain. I have insomnia anyway but but there does seem to be a difference-I wake up feeling like I slept well when before it felt like I didn't sleep at all. It's all very confusing.
