Fatigue is a common symptom that I have been experiencing lately. I display some symptoms of MS, but I’m not certain if I have it. I informed my physician that I have been experiencing fatigue, but he attributes that to me being overweight. I’m a 20-year old, White-Male, about 5’7 and 220 Pounds. The Doctor told me this is likely what is causing my fatigue. It feels like I have a mental fatigue though — not physical. My Doctor took a blood sample to check my cholesterol levels and check my ‘thyroid’. Can MS be traced in the blood sample?
Do you think I’m overreacting? Perhaps it is my weight and not MS. Or maybe it is due to the summer heat and lack of water intake. Or maybe I’m just not stimulating my mind enough. Any suggestions or thoughts? It would be great if I could have some medical insight to this.
