Suggest Treatment For Tiredness

my daughter had an ASD repair four years ago. She s 29 now and chronically tired. Hers was repaired with open heart surgery. She also was found to have a persistent left superior vena cava. Could her supposedly corrected heart condition have anything to do with her tiredness.

I dont think so.You should check her blood and iron levels.Thats a common cause of tiredness in this age, also thyroid functions, glucose levels, blood pressure should also be checked.
