Well, I had a blood test because I was having heart palpitations and under extreme stress, so not exactly “just collapsed”. But they found I have hypothyroidism, and life’s much better and much easier with the medication.

Turns out you’re not supposed to feel tired after doing nothing, sleep 12 hours, then wake up tired…

Annoyingly this must’ve been an issue for years, but I was raised to “shut up and get on with it”, and told the problem was that I’m “just lazy” :/

This was me except I was disappointed when the blood test came back completely healthy. I guess it's all in my head after all...

The absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence.

I know nothing about you or your situation, but food allergies can really mess up your life, and they're often overlooked (speaking from experience).
