Thyroid: I would look for a thyroid problem. That would be a condition that would result in your symptoms. Check into a book called Hypothryoid the Unsuspected Illness by Dr Broda Barnes. Older book, but good source to read and I think it will help you look to what to explore to resolve your issue.
