So tired

I had foot surgery to remove a bone spur on Thursday. I can’t believe how tired I am feeling!!! I was not expecting this. Just have to vent

I’m sure the surgery was a big shock to your system. So with lupus you will really need more rest than a person without it. Seems like there is always something to set us back a bit. Rest all you can.

Yes! Surgery is a big shock to the system even for those without Lupus so you can be sure the recovery time for us will be longer. Listen to your body and rest, rest and rest!

I feel for you! I hate when Lupus symptoms give me a ‘left hook’ out of nowhere! Especially when, in hindsight, I should have seen it coming… You just go ahead and vent! That is one of the reasons that this online support group is so great. After all, venting, is one of the reasons support groups exist, along with many other reasons as well. Venting to others that understand…and, being a group that will always listen…because most of us get to a point in feeling that venting…or even real complaining to those around us, begins to wear out its welcome - if you know what I mean. I’ll send some prayers your way today !!
