Events per hour and sleep good but still tired

Post by richjh » Thu Aug 08, 2024 2:08 pm

I must say my events per hour couldn’t be much better. For the first 6 days of this month 3 of them were O events two were .2 and 1 was .6 events per hour. I am very pleased with this score. I had my VA pulmonary appointment the other day and they said it couldn’t be much better. Then why am I still VERY tired? I feel I am more tired in the morning when I first get out of bed. I do feel a bit better in the afternoon. I’m on a new blood thinner after having a blood clot in my leg while on Eliquis. I am now on Lovenox injections. Maybe that is making me tired?

I think you need to talk to your MD - we're not doctors after all, much as we like to think we are :)

How many hours of sleep (real sleep and not laying in bed awake) do you think you are getting?
How many wake ups during the night?
Any other physical or mental health issues going on?
Any other medications besides the Lovenox?
