If not urgent...: One way to figure out what causes fatigue is to keep a diary for 2 weeks and show it to the primary care doctor. The diary should include things such as medicines taken, vitamins or supplements taken, caffeine / alcohol / illegal drugs used, bedtimes, wake-up times, stressors (job / home / spouse / kids / etc.), exercising, foods eaten, meal times, etc... Blood tests might be done.

Why do I get sleepy when I drink soda? There is no energy boost. It actually relaxes me and helps me sleep. Amount: 10 - 12 oz. Frequency: once a day or less. If it's relevant, I have anxiety and am taking one (1) prescription medication for it. ?
