Hello and thanks for the query.

All your symptoms together do not add up to a particular syndrome, but I do think there may be a component of anxiety going on. Anxiety and depression can have profound effects on the body and how one feels from day to day.

If you have not already, I recommend you to visit with your doctor for a comprehensive physical examination a well as some laboratory studies to rule out any issues with your blood count or your Thyroid.

In addition, I recommend you to participate in a regular exercise regimen, meditation and yoga as all of these will have a positive impact on how you feel.

Thanks again for the query. I hope you found this response to be helpful and informative. If you have any additional concerns I would be happy to address them.

Regards.
