Fatigue Related to Stress? Posted: 03-12-07 23:37pm
I have over 3 years with extreme fatigue,
but I dont feel stressed. Even when I
relax for 1 whole week, I feel extreme
fatigue. Any ideas?

Fatigue can also be related to what you
eat... Lack of certain proteins or
minerals or too much of something... It
may not be related to any mental disorder
or medication.
I have fatigue problems as well. I'd tried
asking my doctor if maybe I had diabetes,
nope wasn't that. Could be cholesterol,
low iron... Low magnesium... Then I
thought it might be the meds I started
taking a year ago... Then I gave up trying
to find out what it was... I'm too tired
to find out... lol.

Have you had your thyroid tested? If it is
Hypothyroid you would be tired all the
time. Do you have numbness? I would ask
your doctor for a full blood workup to
rule out any underlying cause.

Another good one, and I know from personal
experience, is blood sugar. You get a
nice blood sugar disorder in there and it
can mimic almost any illness or disorder
in the world. However, if fatigue is the
only symptom it's a bit odd. Do you
notice any differences depending on what
you eat or is it just constant? If
constant, you may want to look into
candida. Do the home test you can find
online and see how that turns out. I've
heard of people going that route in such
cases and feeling 90% better in about two
weeks.
