Hi,
Based on the history you have shared, fatigue at this is usually due to deficiency of iron and some essential vitamins plus calcium.
In autoimmune diseases fatigue is one of the symptoms but you need to focus on basic causes like anemia and vitamins deficiency first.
So I would suggest you to take good multivitamins and calcium meanwhile get your blood tests for Anemia and Calcium plus vitamin D levels done.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
