: It is possible that the surgeries, as well as the infection, have wore you out. I don’t know if general anesthesia was used, but, if so, that can make you tired. Also, as a result of the infection, that can certainly make one tired. Your body is combating the infection, and it is working harder. Express your concerns with your Physician.
