Hi,

If your life is not sedentary that means you are working on a daily routine, the symptoms you have given in your history are suggesting of hypothyroidism, it can't be the final diagnosis but you may need to get your thyroid profile done.

My opinion is to consult a general physician before consulting an Endocrinologist. Make sure you also do light exercise on daily bases to maintain your weight and blood circulation.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
