constant fatigue and fatigue Posted: 06-25-08 20:47pm
I didn't think anything was abnormal about
this until a friend mentioned it to me...
she said it might be a vitamin defficiency
or something.
I notice that everytime after I eat or
exercise all I want to do after is take a
nap and sleep. And I've noticed that it
happens everytime. What is wrong with me?
Like today I went to the mall for a
couple of hours, got home and slept for
two and a half hours. I just woke up.
And it's not like I'm not sleeping enough
during the night. I usually sleep in for
like 10-12hrs
I've also been having this weird cough
that doesn't go away. It's not flemmy or
anything. It's dry and weak and it kinda
sounds like a smoker's cough but I don't
smoke. It's on and off constantly and
this one's been happening for months now.
I don't have a cold or anything. My
friends and family said that it isn't
normal.

Have you been tested for sleep apnea. Most
that have this disorder have these same
symtoms. They only think they sleep that
long. When in reality they are only
getting half of that at most. What happens
is that you actually stop breathing for a
few seconds and the oxygen to the brain is
slowed down. This is what makes you so
tired in the morning after you thought
you've had a good night sleep. Do you
snore? Your throat is most dry during
sleep. You might want to mention this to
your doctor so a conclusive diagnosis can
be made for you.
