1day post l4-l5 epidural inj.under anesthesia.having low blood pressure 98/61 or lower. fatigue and no energy despite sleeping 20 hours.is this normal?

Complicated: I think there's more here than meets the eye. For one thing, anyone who sleeps 20 hours has something going on - chronic pain? depression? That would also account for feeling tired. Sometimes we confuse the symptoms of the disease with the treatment.
