Thank you for your question.
This answer is a general description of the problem you are having. Please click on this link (DoctorOnCall) to talk to a doctor.
For your information, fatigue is a necessary part of the recovery process. Fatigue should be considered a positive sign of progress, rather than a negative sign that indicates poor effort, or ongoing disease process, or a “plateau” in the rehabilitation process.
It will take 3 to 6 weeks to fully recover. If you had bleeding from your aneurysm this may take longer. You may feel tired for up to 12 or more weeks. If you had a stroke or brain injury from the bleeding, you may have permanent problems such as trouble with speech or thinking, muscle weakness, or numbness.
However, I suggest you to consult with your doctor regarding Insomnia as it needs further investigation.
Make plans to have help at home while you recover.
Follow a healthy lifestyle, such as:
- If you have high blood pressure, keep it under control. Be sure to take the medicines your provider prescribed for you.
- DO NOT smoke.
- Ask your provider if it is OK for you to drink alcohol.
- Ask your provider when it is OK to start sexual activity.
Please call your doctor if you have severe headache, stiff neck, nausea & vomiting, eye problem, speech problem, lose consciousness, weakness or numbnes of arm, leg and face.
