I am always tired too. In fact, I have felt tired for a couple of years now, almost all the time.
I am on Lithium, Prozac, and Zyprexa. I am on a heavy dose of the Lithium but not so much on the P and Z.
I have blood tests regularly because of the need to monitor the Lithium and my doctor has not alerted me to any issues when I have the blood tests. I just looked at my last blood test as I was reading this. I had the test done in September. Looks like my hemoglobin levels are fine. I can't find a thyroid part on the blood test sheet-when I go to my doctor beginning of November I think I'm going to ask about the possibility of hypothyroidism. It's good to check, I guess.
My doctor and I have discussed sleep apnea; I don't think that's me. My husband said he never observed the symptoms in me while I was sleeping. I know I could do better on nutrition and exercise so maybe improving these areas would help me out. Today I bought a good multivitamin and some calcium chews and Omega-3 pills. I'm going to try to work on my health.
Other than that I don't know what could be wrong. I have heard in this thread about the use of light boxes...I have thought about getting one myself. I live in a warm, sunny climate, but I'm indoors for work every day and I live in an apartment without a porch or yard so I don't get as much sunlight as I should.
I am interested in exploring more options for everyone on this thread that has similar issues. I know I'm stumped!
Thanks!
