Brief Answer:
Do total check up.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I read your query and here is my advice.

I think you should do a total check up in order to check for possible causes of tiredness. Do a total blood count with formula and liver chemistry, fasting glucose levels, creatinine and nitrogen levels. Sometimes iron deficiency anemia can cause it or possible liver inflammation .
Taking multivitamins can increase your energy levels. Take mainly vitamin C, complex B vitamins, E and A.


Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
