Lately I have felt so tired. I feel so sleepy and my eyes burn a bit. I've been under allot of s tress, but I'm not sure if its fatigue, allergies, or a virus. I've also been coughing. I guess it could be all of the above. What to do??

Oh ((((ev))))

We've had a nasty round of the flu here. That's where I've been the past 4-5 days. Sick family. First my youngest daughter, then my husband. My husband was feeling ran down for several days. Really fatigued. Then he spiked a 103 fever and kept it for three days. So keep an eye out. There is meds to help with the side effects of the flu. best of luck to you hon.

take care and try to get some rest
many blessings,
Kimberly.

Fatigue, oh man, I hate it, and also all the various causes, I've been through a battery of tests, I'd say start with your family doc., like you mentioned, it could be any of the 3 you mentioned, I'm not familiar with TX, was there once back in the 80's, company I worked for sent me sent me to Plano for a course.
Does your area have certain seasonal plants, or even mold spores that can be causing a possible allergy?
Sometimes, things we may not have any allergy to, hits us as we get older, and sometimes not.
When I moved to PA, I had so many sinus, and other nasty respiratory stuff, after my ENT ran some bloodwork for allergies (more accurate than the skin test, Rast test?) by showing antigen levels, too complicated for my mind, I use to know this stuff, ha!ha! Well anyway, my main problem was the level of mold spores outdoors, we lived in the valley section of PA, and not many miles from where commercial mushrooms are grown in shroom houses, but the soil condition is great for growing mushrooms, even in our mulch around the shrubs.
Try some Benydryl (sp?) or some other OTC allergy med., see if it helps, if so it may be an indicator your problem is allergy related.
Still, check with your doc., today so many things can start with similar symptoms.
Hope you feel better soon
