Brief Answer:
Thyroid

Detailed Answer:
Sorry to learn about your symptoms.

When I see someone like you I perform a thorough physical examination, with particular emphasis on Blood Pressure and Pulse read ins. This gives a fair idea about significant dehydration in addition to other signs.

Next I order the following blood tests :

CBC
Glucose
Electrolytes
Liver and kidney function tests
Calcium
TSH
Free T4
25 hydroxy Vitamin D
Early morning serum cortisol at 8 am

None of these tests require fasting.

These give more detailed information about other potential causes of your symptoms.
