Hi,

I need a few clarifications before we discuss about medications.

1. How long have you been feeling low / fatiguability?
2. Do you have any other symptoms along with it especially fever, body aches, nausea, loose stools, and so on?
3. How is your sleep? Do you sleep regularly for 6-8 hours every day?
4. Are you stressed and worried / depressed?
5. Do you have any known medical condition like diabetes, high blood pressure or thyroid problem?

Brief Answer:
Good to understand the cause...

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

The details provided doesn't give me any clues to the cause of fatigue expect that you seem overweight for the height. In this situation, I would consider a few tests that include - complete blood count, blood sugar (fasting / post prandial) and thyroid function test to begin with. Visit your treating doctor and discuss about the tests.

Hope this helps. Let me know if you need clarifications.
