@ssapp1, I transplanted 13 yr ago and I remember that I needed a daily nap/ quiet time every day in the early post transplant recovery. I had been critically ill before hand and had much catching-up to do with muscle mass, weight gain, endurance, etc. Even today, my body lets me know that a nap is in order if I have too many overly busy days. I guess that I am fortunate to be retired and can easily work that into my day. I also remember that at 9 months post transplant, that I went to the Great Smokey Mountains for some day hiking with husband, but my endurance was nowhere where it used to be.
I had extreme fatigue ahead of transplant, and the tiredness after surgery was not the same thing. My endurance has improved over time and I am proud to say that I feel good, and have energy and am more active than most of my friends who are my age (73).
I commend you in speaking with your transplant team about your activities and getting the green light from them! I can still hear my transplant nurse and doctors telling me to listen to my body, and to go ahead and be active and get back to my living - that is why I had the transplant.
-I just remembered that I did have to take iron supplement for a period of time after seeing my team for my 4 month checkup. I am interested to hear what your nurse coordinator has to say about your fatigue/tiredness. I look forward to hearing from you.
