How To Treat Tiredness And Low Energy Levels In An Old Woman?

My wife, constantly tired with no energy but also does more than her share of house hold chores. She is always tired. The big problem is I can't get her to see a doctor. She is nearly 70 and we have only Medicare but are financially able to pay for any emergency

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi. The of 70 can itself can be a reason of tiredness. If this has occurred over a short period of time, it is advisable to at least go for certain blood tests, and an examination by a Doctor. There are so many reasons , can be anemia, or a general cause. So I would advise to take her to the Doctor so that an emergency is not needed if the diagnosis is done in an early age and stage.
