Hello,
I think you should check your thyroid hormone levels checking T3, T4 and TSH levels. You mentioned doing ultrasound and having several nodules but thyroid hormones will show if you have Hypothyroidism or not.
Also, do a total blood count and formula and also feritimemia levels. Iron deficiency anemia may also cause fatigue.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
