How Can Severe Fatigue Be Treated?

I have had severe fatigue for many years and it has gotten to the point where I cannot do my daily activities. The Dr.s keep telling me to alleviate my stress but I always tell them I am not stressed. It is a debilitating fatigue and I don t think they get it. I feel like I am truly exhausted and my muscles feel weak. Please Help in any way possible. Thank you, Eric
