6 months post HA and I am extremely tired all the time. By 10:30am I could sleep yet only couple hours out of bed. Just tired and lethargic

What drugs are you on? It’s ossicle that you may benefit from a change of drug regimen. A chat with your GP would be a good starting point.

Agree with Steve - get your drugs reviewed.. On a high dose of Bisoporol I could barely function and was permanently exhausted - tired didn't describe it - after a number of tweaks I still take it at a much lower dose and not so badly affected by it. Make an appointment as soon as you can. Take care.

should have also added we are all different so it may be one of your other meds that's causing the problem - GP first stop.

[stevejb1810 in reply to Jinky07]

OK, so that is a long list and I see that you are Type 2 diabetic as well (at least I assume you are given the metformin). So, you have more health issues that just your ticker. I think you need to go and see your GP and have a discussion about potentially changing/amending your drugs

[Clerkenweller]

It’s likely to be your meds. Agree with othoreview drugs with GP or if possible uour cardiologist. The bisiprolol completely knocked me out.

Hi Jiinky

An opportunity for a full scale lifestyle review now presents itself . Diabetes 2 can be totally stopped if you muster all your determination and change your diet and your lifestyle - no more sugar, cakes, chocolate, biscuits, bread. However if do it consistently - no diabetes.

Your insulin resistance will change and your arteries will stand a fighting chance of not clogging up any further, and you blood pressure will start to decline, possibly to the point where you don't need meds for that either. You may even start taking some brisk regular exercise to distract yourself from your sugar cravings.

If you think you can't manage it , visit the diabetes.org website and look at the number of amputations that are carried out on a daily basis . Best of luck, hope you get active.
