Question 1

will gonorrhea cause tiredness and not being to wake up in the morning?

Accepted Answer

Gonorrhea Effects: This seems to be an extreme reaction to this common infection.  I would wonder if it was combined with another illness, fever, fatigue or the medications used to treat this infection.  I would want to know more history.

A good sexual history and testing for the common sti's would be warranted if you were in my clinic.

Hope that helps.

Question 2

what is the cause of prolonged tiredness? even after a good nights sleep. i wake up fine but by 11. i am drained

Accepted Answer

: Sleep comes in various stages &amp; with deep sleep being the most effective in restoring vigor. If your "time" asleep is pretty normal but you are not restored, it suggests you are not entering deep sleep stages. I would visit your doc with this in mind. An exam may reveal some issues or a sleep study may help identify it. Sleep disturbances are one of the most under diagnosed problems in health.

Question 3

on day 4/5 taking 500mg amoxicillin 3 times a day. can't wake up in mornings, extreme tiredness, is this side affect?

Accepted Answer

No. Something's up.: Tiredness isn't a common side effect of amoxicillin; it could be a residual from whatever infection amoxicillin was trying to treat, or it could represent some other problem unrelated or indirectly related to amoxicillin (for instance, kidney damage causing an electrolyte imbalance). In any case, you should talk to the doctor who prescribed amoxicillin for you or use HealthTap Prime to get answers

Question 5

i take very slow shallow breaths in general, more so when i sleep. resulting in extreme tiredness as soon as i wake up & headaches too. what can i do?

Accepted Answer

Possible sleep apnea: See your doctor for an examination and possible sleep study.

Question 6

i've suffered from extreme tiredness since 15 & can never seem to wake up. tests revealed no obvious illness or sleep problems. any ideas?

Accepted Answer

Hard to say: If you have been thoroughly tested and no organic cause could be found, then by definition, you could have chronic fatigue syndrome or it could be something psychological which could be hard to prove. Chronic, smoldering low grade infection is possible but again, hard to prove. Or it could be this is the way you are. Hard to say without knowing what workup had been done or what you look like. Gl.

Question 7

Accepted Answer

Get Sleep Study: It is hard to say  what is going on just based on this description. Even though you deny, you probably have narcolepsy. You will need an overnight sleep study with eeg monitoring. This is usually done in a sleep lab.

Question 8

Accepted Answer

Question unclear: Normal, healthy people do not have "constant tiredness," without a good reason. One's primary care doctor can follow along and look for reasons for fatigue, such as anemia, infection, mental illness, auto-immune disease, thyroid problems, cancer, insomnia, etc...  Various tests may be needed, depending on one's whole story, and sequence of symptoms.
