Hi
Thanks for posting on HCM
Extreme fatigue even though can at times be traced to some of your habits or routines, there are many medical conditions that may make you feel that way.They include: Anemia,diabetes, chronic fatigue syndrome, chronic infection/inflammation, liver or kidney diseases, hyper/hypothyroidism, inflammatory bowel disease, multiple sclerosis, obesity, stress, sleep apnea, cancer, depression, anxiety, drugs like antidepressants alcohol/drugs.
There are just so many possible causes.I will advise you see the Doctor for evaluation and work-ups.Work-ups like full blood count, blood sugar, serum electrolytes, liver/kidney/thyroid function tests, infectious work-ups depending on clinical orientation may help in initial evaluation.
I will advise you eat well and balanced in essential nutrients and in good proportions,take fruits, exercise regularly.
Hope my answer will help you
Best regards
