What Causes Severe Fatigue After Recovering From Diverticulitis?
I was hospitalized for diverticulitis two weeks ago and had IV antibiotics. Sent home 4 days later ( no surgery) with two oral antibiotics. No more abdominal pain but I have been incredibly tired way beyond normal. Had to leave church today because I felt like I was going to pass out and had to go to bed. No energy. Is this normal?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
That is not normal. You should consult your doctor and work out the plan for the weakness.
It may be due to decreased fluid intake or k+ loss which make you feel weak.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Bhadresh Lakhani
