Feeling tired can seem like the ultimate symptom of modern life. It often is a byproduct of our go-go-go, 24/7, fall-asleep-next-to-your-laptop, wake-up-with-your-phone lifestyle.
Anemia
Anemia means you don’t have enough red blood cells to take oxygen to all the distant outposts of the body. Less oxygen means lower energy and more fatigue.
Celiac disease
Celiac is an autoimmune disease that causes the immune system to attack the small intestine when a person eats gluten, a protein found in wheat, rye, and barley.
Sleep apnea
Sleep apnea is more than just trouble getting enough Zz’s. It’s when your airways close and you actually stop breathing repeatedly during the night, which, needless to say, wakes you up pretty quickly. Because of those frequent disruptions, people with sleep apnea walk around exhausted.
Chronic fatigue syndrome
The defining symptom of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is, of course, fatigue–but with specific characteristics. It’s fatigue that lasts for at least six months, that gets worse with mental or physical exertion, and that doesn’t get better no matter how much you rest. It’s more common in women in their 40s and 50s.
Fibromyalgia
Fatigue isn’t the most pronounced symptom of fibromyalgia (that’s pain), but it’s a big one, along with poor-quality sleep and memory and mood problems. The condition is more common in women.
Chronic pain
Being in constant pain–for any reason–will tire you out.
“It requires energy,” says Dr. Bernstein. Your body is busy coping with the inflammation that’s causing the disease. Dealing with pain can also make it hard to sleep and exercise, adding to the run-down feeling. Certain pain-relieving drugs may also sap you of energy.
Thyroid problems
Both an underactive and an overactive thyroid can cause fatigue. The more common culprit though is an underactive gland, which doesn’t produce enough thyroid hormone. Having an underactive thyroid, also called hypothyroidism, can also mean weight gain and sore muscles.
