Reply to "Waking up refreshed a thing of the past?"

I never did when I had or before I had my pouch. 

Only thing was before my pouch was steroids. 

With my pouch I was taking nothing. 

I was always wore out when waking. Sometimes and most days it lasted all day.

I was lucky to get 5 hours of sleep. 

I was miserable  But. And this is not for everyone.  I had mine taken out. It never quite worked right. From the start. Now that I have an ileo I sleep 9 hours. Funny thing is it takes an hour and two cups of coffee to get me going  ow. 

Sorry to hear your going through this  It's not easy and I know  I went through it for so long I can't say. But decades of no really good sleep. And towards the end before my removal it was high on my list of reasons to remove it. Not number one. And it's not a solution for everyone. 

Definitely not your solution. 

Sleep is so important especially if you are working and have to get some sleep to be able to work. 

I only hope you can find a solution. I couldn't  And I'm sure some here will have a less drastic solution as mine. But mine wasn't for just sleep alone. 

I sleep well now. Better than I have in a long long time. But I still wake tired. (I'm  it a young man any longer) But it dissapates quickly  Not like before where I was so fatigued before even going to work. Not gonna even mention how tired I was by the end of my shift. Wow.

So to answer your question  I woke up like I hadn't got any sleep with a pouch. 

Does your feeling of being sick and tired when you wake dissapate as the day goes by?
