For the past few weeks I have been extremley tired. Not only that but all my muscles hurt. I am up on my vitamins and proteins so I  dont know what it is. My blood sugars are normal too\

I am going to see my surgeon in about two weeks. Till then I am hoping to get some ideas/advice on what could possibly be going on

Are you having pain or cramps?  If it's cramps it could be a lack of Magnesium.  I take a dry Mag/Potassium mix.

Good luck,

There are definitely many things it could be.  First question - are you on cholesterol medication?  If so, you need to get a blood test immediately called CPK. There is rare but serious side effect from cholesterol medications - I can't say it or spell it but it starts with Rhab - and it affects the muscles.  I have seen people that went undiagnosed for a long time that couldn't walk that the pain got so bad.  This blood test should be done every 3 months on anyone on cholesterol medication.

If it isn't that, then it could from magnesium or potassium - depending on if it is aching or cramping.  Cramping would lead more to potassium, B12 or B1.  Make sure you surgeon does a complete blood panel.
