Fatigue: Have you been tested for associated hypothyroidism or other autoimmune disease to account for your fatigue?. Fatigue is also a common problem in myasthenia gravis. If you're not doing well you might consider consulting a specialist in this disorder at a university hospital. Other treatments are available.
