tireness and sleepyness

for the past 2-3 months I have been feeling very tired, for no apparent reason. I would do very little and get tired easily! I’ve never been as tired and lazy as this before. I constantly feel tired now. Also I sleep wayyyyyy more than I used to. I sleep about 10-14 hours easily. I’m not sure whats going on. Is that normal? cant be because when I used to work and and go to school at the same time and i still wouldnt be as sleepy and tired. Whats really going on?

i think it would be weakness. increase the use of fruits. and then see??
also drink lassi.

Re: tireness and sleepyness

Easily fatigued and sleepiness can be accounted to some conditions like form the simple not getting enough sleep, to being under stress, iron deficiency in the diet, also thyroid problems :hypothyroidism.

How is your diet? is it balanced or are you eating way too many refined carbs and processed foods. Are you getting enough sleep? Could stress be tying you down? Get a simple blood test done to check for your hemoglobin levels.

Re: tireness and sleepyness

true

Re: tireness and sleepyness

I have a normal diet, just something every desi person would eat and i dont over eat either. nor is the stress a huge factor, iron defiency could be ? and plz dont tell me thyroid problem as my both elder sisters have em :( def need to get my blood test done then. Thanks!
and yes lassi indeed makes me wana pass out in the sun lol

Re: tireness and sleepyness

So since both your elder sisters have a thyroid problem, then your family history is positive here. Do get checked for the Blood TSH levels and T3 and T4 levels.
best of luck :flower1:

Re: tireness and sleepyness

Yeh may well be an iron deficiency or a thyroid problem. Don't worry yourself silly over it - just go to the doctors and get it sorted out inshallah :)

Re: tireness and sleepyness

^Yup, go to the doctor. They can do a blood test that will indicate how your iron and hormone levels are doing. Although, I have read and also heard from a doctor that borderline iron deficiency doesn't show up in a blood test. Try taking a multivitamin. Plus, fasting affects our energy levels.

Re: tireness and sleepyness

Sleeping 10-14 hours is definitely wrong. I would go to a doctor right way.

Re: tireness and sleepyness

I slept 11 hours today, without being bothered even once, my phone rang for hours and I had no clue. I actually overselpt on my left side for too long and now it hurts :( I'm getting worried. i gotta wait til friday to get my blood test done, thx to full-time school
