Why am i so sleepy post stroke?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Fatigue: Means REST: Hi post stroke your brain and body have a very lot of healing to do. When the body is recovering from major trauma it can take some time to resolve all of the damage that the stroke did. When you are fatigued in this kind of situation it is best to listen to your body and to rest. Rest means: to not work; to not work out; to sleep.
