Period after a surgery

Sierra • Learning how to be strong

I had my appendix removed less then a month ago while on my period. Now I have it again approx a week or more early. But is it normal to get it early after a surgery and have such a heavy flow that it leaves you feeling weak, run down and just exhausted?

This is my first surgery besides my tonsils as a little kid. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this before.
