Brief Answer:
please get your thyroid function tested
Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX
I have read your query and understand your concerns.
Your symptoms suggest a probable under-functioning thyroid or Hypothyroidism. I would advise you to get your full thyroid profile test done including free T3, free T4, and TSH levels.
Also, get a routine hemogram done which includes hemoglobin. Low hemoglobin levels can cause these symptoms as well.
Please write back to me with the reports.
Meanwhile, continue to eat a regular intervals, keep your stress under control and exercise regularly.
