<s>[INST] Why are stroke survivors so tired after their stroke? [/INST] Post-stroke fatigue is a common complication for stroke patients. This type of fatigue isn’t simply being tired; it can feel all-encompassing and overwhelming. Between the physical toll that a stroke takes on a person and the emotional factors that come with a stroke, it’s normal to feel constantly run-down. Scientists and doctors have not been able to pinpoint the exact reason why stroke patients feel this way, but it’s extremely common after a stroke, regardless of whether the stroke was mild or severe.
