See your doctor: It sounds like lightheadedness, generalized weakness, and lethargy. These can be symptoms are a large variety of problems and a medical problem must be ruled out as a first step. Your doctor can take a more thorough history and perform a physical exam including appropriate labs as needed to help identify the problem. Good luck!
