Fatigue: is probably THE most common cause of poor concentration at your age! (Many studies about Medical Residents!!!) Hope this is helpful but the "advice" will not give you the REST you NEED! Hope this is helpful Dr X

Stress and fatigue: 72 hours of work a week is A LOT!! When you work that much, you often don't get enough sleep (because you don't have enough hours to do the rest of your life). I'm not sure if "pregnancy" is a current condition, but if so....then 72 hours of work per week may actually be dangerous to you/your unborn child. Do everything you can to bring your life back in balance; if persists, pursue a doctor eval
