Hopeless, Have you been tested for Celiac Disease? Have you had your B12 and D tested? Have you ever had a brain MRI (pituitary)? How is your thyroid?

Sorry, Lily, now I'm off topic.

I have great doctors, too. That doesn't mean they're not infallible. Many doctors don't think to test for the simple tests when a patient has fatigue. They often think that all women are tired and that it's somehow normal.

When I told my doctor back in 1997-99 that I was so tired that I felt sick, she didn't test for my B12 until I put it in writing. I was severely deficient. And she is the best internist I've ever known.

Keep logging your symptoms. Clues are everywhere!

What lab was out of whack? Changing labs don't mean that the first one was wrong. For example, antibody levels change and don't necessarily reflect disease severity.

Do you eat a snack in the evening to help with blood sugar issues? You know, like a half a slice of whole grain bread with almond or peanut butter?

I hope your docs can figure out what is going on.
