To begin to exercise again after a severe illness you may need to take only very gentle exercise. If you are obese and very overweight take care and obtain medical advice on a suitable exercise program.
You may need to be advised by a respiratory consultant, physiotherapist, or other specialists, and GPs will help you assess, diagnose and treat symptoms ranging from breathlessness, chronic fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, and stress.
Your doctor may give you special dietary instructions and advice on the best time of day to exercise or whether to exercise at all. The doctors may ask you to refrain from certain types of food and drink.
If you are very overweight your doctor may suggest that you do a program of aerobic exercise at night. The doctors will also suggest that you do strength training or resistance exercise 3 to 5 times a week, alternating with a program of aerobic exercise.
A doctor may advise that you have a blood pressure check. This is a check made at regular intervals, at least once a year, to measure your blood pressure. To ensure that your blood pressure is normal you will need to follow their advice and have a check every 6 months.
Your doctor may ask you to abstain from certain beverages, such as coffee, tea and alcohol during your illness. These are drinks that have excess caffeine and can increase your blood pressure. Your doctor will also give you medicine to prevent constipation, or prescribe laxatives or enemas.
Your doctor may suggest that you do stretching exercises, which will help your muscles recover. When you exercise you may need to refrain from caffeine and nicotine. These are harmful to your health. If you do smoke cigarettes will likely be a problem to you since they increase your blood pressure, and may cause heart problems. Caffeine may cause you to feel anxious.
Your health will be in your hands. You have many choices when it comes to your health and fitness. You can take up a healthy diet, do some aerobic exercise 3 to 5 times a week, take medication to control your blood pressure, get a check from your doctor once a month, take supplements, or do nothing.
