Chronic tiredness: Has dozens of possible causes: hypothyroid, sleep apnea, diabetes (uncontrolled), caffeine, stress, poor physical condition, anemia, infection, bad teeth, medications (antihistamines for allergy, BP meds, etc) etc. See fp for good history & physical, basic lab, possible sleep study as starting points.

Yes: I would definitely recommend seeing a sleep specialist for an evaluation. This will probably include an overnight sleep study to try to identify the exact problem.
