General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello there,
You need to get your blood checked for Hb, RBC count and MCH. You may be having fatigue due to a lowered RBC hemoglobin. even though your blood flow may be similar but the oxygen it carries it is reduced leading to your fatigue.

Hope this helps,
