HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

IF there is a swelling in the neck then you may need to have thyroid function blood tests to check the levels of the thyroid hormones.

A full blood count to check for anemia may also be needed. Anemia can be associated with fatigue and dizziness as well.

IF these are normal then other causes would need to be ruled out by further tests.

I hope this helps
