[QUOTE="SiobhanR, post: 2274668, member: 486851"] Hi [USER=238056]@Bluemarinejosephine[/USER] Thanks for posting the above. I completely sympathise- i have diabetes 22 yrs and constantly have this issue. I tell my consultants and GP all the time. While my BG levels are very good in general, i am constantly tired, and nearly feel like I need a sleep after every time i eat. I carb count and as i say very good levels of control in general. Am always asked how i am doing and my reply is the same great apart from the tiredness. The odd time my Vitamin D or Iron may be low but in general i am very healthy. I feel like the Doctors think its in my head. They mention ME or chronic fatigue but i know its not that as i get up go to work and get on with my day but my energy levels sometimes are through the floor. I am in my 40s but i know its not age as I have felt this way in 30s and 20s too. I have a busy and on occassions stressful job and by the end of the week am fit for very little. I try to do exercise in terms of swimming (which i can't do due to Covid) but sometimes its impossible to get out of bed earlier to do. For the most part I try to get on with it but it does get to me, I am so sick of feeling tired and low energy levels. I've spoken to a few people who wreckon this goes hand in glove with a immuno condition. Its good to hear am not the only one though :) [/QUOTE]
