Awakening from general anesthesia occurs in a matter of minutes. Although there are many causes of fatigue, including sleep deprivation, studies have shown that general anesthesia does not cause fatigue and does not compensate for lost hours of sleep.
Water/fluids, electrolytes, vitamins, minimize narcotics, exercise as
tolerated
Consult Functional Medicine. Start Acupuncture with Moxibustion. This can be anemia, Vit D/B12 deficiency.
