What helps with post liver transplant fatigue?

@des46893, Have you started any kind of exercise/activity program in an attempt to counteract the fatigue?

One thing that my transplant team stresses is exercise to promote bone health since our immunosuppressants can mess with bone density. If you have been inactive for a while, be prepared to start out slowly.
I find that on days when I exercise, that I have more energy throughout the day. But if I over do it, I am double exhausted. I had to learn how my body reacts and how to balance what works for me. But either way, I sleep soundly at night!

I’m wondering if anyone is on meds for bone density. My endocrinologist said that I could be a candidate for one of the drugs for osteoporosis because of the prednisone I’m taking and having osteopenia. It was ok’d by Mayo, but I’ve looked at the possible side effects and decided to wait til I see my endocrinologist next summer.
