What Causes Strong Headaches, Body Aches And Tiredness Regularly In An Individual?

my 23 year old daugther works at an elementary school and seems to be getting every virus and bug that the kids have had since she started last october. she has asthma and some allergies. over the past few months she has gained about 20 lbs and has had many viruses which include strong headaches, body aches and tiredness. sometimes she has a few days in which she feels good and then boom sick again. I m afraid that something else is going on. she has had bloodwork within the past two month and has been checked for thyroid and other issues. should i get her checked for lyme disease? is there anything else it could be that is making her feel this way? thanks

Fatigue as they now are calling it is the latest killer Pandemic.

You said she has asthma and allergies. So is she taking any steroids-orally or topical/inhalers? They are a major cause of weight gain and fatigue in young persons.

Diet wise she has to eat as many berries ,cherries and grapes as possible. This is if she first gets her Fasting Blood sugar gets done twice on different occasions and both come normal. Diabetes in the young or old is another major treatable cause of fatigue.

Hope that helps.
