Is Your "To Do" List Piling Up
Because You're Always Tired?

If your answer is YES, you're not alone.

As many as 44 percent of transplant survivors experience significant fatigue on a daily basis, and it's different than normal tiredness.

Fatigued transplant survivors
  • feel tired, even after a short nap
  • lack enough energy for everyday chores
  • recover slowly after physical work
  • have decreased concentration and memory lapses
