Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
FOR THE PAST TWO WEEKS I HAVE BEEN EXTREMELY TIRED AND SLEEPY, I DON T THINK IT IS COMING FROM LACK OF SLEEP. WHILE AT WORK, I CAN BARELY HOLD MY HEAD UP OR MY EYES OPEN. I AM REALLY GETTING CONCERN. THE ONLY THING I HAVE DONE DIFFERENTLY IN THE PAST MONTH IS THAT I TAKE IRON PILLS 3 T O4 DAYS A WEEK.
You need to see a doctor. There are many possible causes for your symptoms such as anemia and low thyroid. It is not a good idea to take iron unless you have documented iron deficiency because iron can be harmful to the liver.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Kathy Robinson, General & Family Physician
