Other than coffee is there anything else that could keep my energy levels up without any crashes or problematic side effects?

I'm a 35 yr old female and everytime I start to drink coffee I end up having pain in my chest on the left side. I was told back in 1997 that I had developed pleurisy in my chest from drinking energy drinks but I read that caffeine doesn't cause pleurisy.
I have been feeling sleepy and energy levels are low. I had a good sleep last night and there have been no other noticeable symptoms. I tried basic things like taking a walk outside, drinking water, a small cup of coffee... Anything to worry here?
