What Causes Headache,droopy Eyes And Tiredness In The Morning?

Hi. I wake up almost everyday with headaches, droopy eyes and very tired. Like i never slept at all. Getting out of bed is always a hassle. I do suffer from acute fatigue and I wonder if this is the reason or if it seems like its time to worry about going to the hospital.

Hi!
I read carefully your query.
If I were your treating doctor I would first rule out some conditions that can give these symptoms.
-The first thing I would rule out a thyroid problem because Hypothyroidism cause exactly these symptoms you are having (fatigue,drowsiness,headache,etc).
In this case the diagnosis is confirmed by doing a blood test measuring TSH,fT4,fT3.
If your TSH is high and your fT3,fT4 are low you have Hypothyroidism and you need to take e treatment.

- Second I would perform a complete blood test to rule out an anemia (In this case your Hb would be under 12 mg/dl)

I suggest you to see a doctor so he can perform a physical examination,blood tests searching for the right cause.

Hope I was able to help you.
Wish you good health.
