there is a disorder called chronic fatigue syndrome it is a medical condition that there is no cure for but it is treatable and is not fatal but you do feel tired and kind of like your taking the flu all the time it could also be fibro myalgia they are almost the same but fibro comes with alot of pain and other symptoms you didn't mention so i would guess chronic fatigue if its not that her meds may need changed blood pressure meds can make you feel tired and bad to she really needs to have a dr. diagnose and treat her i wish her the best of luck
