Tired all the time?  Consider this Info

Feeling Fatigue with no Energy

"I'm feeling fatigue with no energy. Any suggestions on supplements that might help give me a bit more energy? I feel so worn out all the time."
Replies:  Assuming that you have been getting enough sleep and eating healthfully, have you had your blood sugar checked recently? Diabetes can cause fatigue.
 

Also hypothyroidism (low thyroid hormone) can cause fatigue.
 

If you're a woman, extreme fatigue is one of the signs of a pending heart attack.

It's also a sign of depression that is quite common with the days getting shorter, upcoming Holiday stressors, etc

first and foremost ..do the blood counts.
 

My doctor didn't seem to even notice my white blood count was elevated to the degree that the test should be redone. He just scratched me a note that it was 'slightly elevated'. No follow-up. 4 months later he was out of town and I got his sub who ordered another white count, then another. Not wanting to go into messy details, just know that it is important to check this out and possibly insist on another test down the line if white count is 'slightly elevated'. Good luck with this. I am sure there are many reasons you could be tired and fatigued, like lots of kids and little free time to relax.
 
Tired all the time can be part of the Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction Syndrome and by definition the doctors do not know what the fatigue is.

That's because there is not just one thing going on and the tests are pretty much not helpful for this group. In fact, unless the lab tech looks at the red blood cells, and reports to the doctor everything about them: their age, their membranes, their size, their shape ... etc, etc ... the autoimmune action on the red blood cells goes undetected.

I think autoimmune hemolytic anemia that 2-butoxyethanol causes is the anemia for this group. I also think it is the primary cause of death in our Nation, only many autoimmune issues and tumors show up, and the 'credit' goes to them for one's ill health & worse.

I shared this different, but more correct view of health & anemia with my US Senator * .... Many health issues are falsely perceived, not the least of which is what the flu is ... and that high white blood cell counts are another clue to the anemia ...not an infection or an lymphoma as is generally thought.

The Proper View of CFIDS, CFS, FM, ME

Do you recall a serious 'flu?'

What kind of work do you do?

Did you serve in the military?

Do you also have a subnormal body temperature?

Do you have 'the chills?'
 
 
. & other health symptoms are rapid heart beat, shortness of breath ... horrible headaches, memory loss, depression, difficulty concentrating ... more than one autoimmune issue

You asked about supplements.

"One of the most important discoveries in health and disease of the last 10 years or so, may be that the production of the sugars that the body requires to form glycoproteins (cellular messenger molecules) is quite ATP intensive, ADP intensive, vitamin/mineral dependant, and enzyme dependant."

Check into glyconutrients and focus on good nutrition. Doctors don't have too many guidelines on what to eat, but you can ask your doctor.

How long have you had this fatigue? If you have the anemia I'm talking about, it won't show up as doctors expect, as you will have more than one thing wrong & one thing cancels out another, etc. So, to find it, share the information I just posted, ask the doctor to ask the lab tech to LOOK at the RED BLOOD CELLS & report everything about them.

Pull up a checklist on CFIDS, CFS, FM & see how many other symptoms you may have. Give your doctor MORE information.
