I'm so grateful that Daddy has had a good year!
The only change I've noticed is that I need more sleep. Changed from 7-8 hours to 8 1/2-10 hours. At first I thought it was from the anesthesia.
I've tried 8 hours and can't manage more than a couple of days.
I'm quite sure it isn't a sign of depression. Also not from being inactive, since I exercise nearly an hour a day. My last round of blood work was normal, and I feel fine. I just have the same bedtime as when I was 6 years old.
Has anyone else needed more sleep long after recovery?

Have you had your thyroid checked???

That's a good idea, I don't think it was part of the standard blood work. Too bad I didn't think of this when I was at the doctors yesterday.
Love, elephant
