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.
What Causes Severe Fatigue And Excessive Sleepiness?
My 20 yr old daughter has extreme fatigue. She sleeps 9 hours a night plus has about a 3 hour nap in the afternoon. She has a 2 year old daughter and she breast fed for 22 months. She is constantly tired. She has seen a couple of doctors who told her she is tired because she is a mom. It seems more extreme than that to me. What could we do to determine cause?
A complete blood count (CBC) test would help to see her hemoglobin levels, than ldh, RBS, thyroid, creatine phosphokinase, chest X-ray, and urine test along with liver and renal function tests.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Bhadresh Lakhani
