Suggest Medication To Increase Energy Levels

I am a 63 year old male with low energy. I get tired walking across the room. I do not think it is heart related as I had several test a year ago and all was ok. I have had low red blood cells in the past. I used to give myself a b-12 shot at least once a month but do not have anymore. my doctor retired. What can I take for energy? I do not have health insurance
