I’m 5 months post surgery. Double mastectomy in Dec and Goldilocks surgery in Jan. I used to play tennis, pickleball, swim, bike, walk,… i am just now starting to play tennis again. My stamina for the day is about 1/2 what it was. My labs still show low iron. No one knows why. I do see improvement. But it’s hard to be patient.

For me, it took about 1 year before I felt like I had truly recovered from the surgery. When I was younger and expecting my first child I ran a very low blood count. I took Iron without much success. The doctor added some Liver Extract, and my count came up quickly. Ask your doctor about this.
