Dear Dogchasers

Hello and welcome to the forum, I hope that you find the site as supportive and informative as I and many others do.

Sorry to say that your question is a bit like “how long is a piece of string” as so much can give us this tiredness that can be fleeting or linger.

You say that yours mainly comes on with exercising {walking} and you have to remember that I m not medically trained, but is the feeling anything like before you had your bypass? Like breathless or a dull ache to the chest area? Do you still have your GTN spray and have you had to use it?

Anything along this line needs urgent investigation and you should have already contacted someone medically trained.

Are you still on medication for your heart? As a lot of them can give this exhausting feeling after even slight exercise, this can be greatly improved by your Dr changing your medication { bit hit and miss }

You need your questions answered and I’m afraid that can only be done by your DR.

Or is the clue in your site name?

Take care and please keep us informed.

Hi do you think you are asking too much of yourself , I know if I overdo it I pay for it for quite a few days afterwards and I've only had a pacemaker put in, just remember we are only human not bionic
