What Can I Do To Increase Energy Levels?

I am a 56 yr old female, 5 5 , 160#. I have had cancer 3 times, including a thyroidectomy. After so many surgeries and reconstruction, I have trigeminal neuralgia in my upper jaw, an arthritic locked jaw, and osteo radio necrosis of my lower jaw. I also have mild sleep apnea. I live in constant pain--meds help but they don t eliminate it. And, they make me very tired. I am good for only about 5 hours a day before I have to lie down, I can be busy and running errands and have to go home because I get too tired to finish. What can I do to increase energy levels? I have a lot of different things going on and I realize there is no simple answer. I see doctors regularly and my blood levels appear fine. Any suggestions and information is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
