I am tired of being told my fatigue is stress

Have you excluded the possibility of vitamin D deficiency? It's very common these days, comes with crippling fatigue and can be identified very easily with a blood test. Like you, I suffered years of being told I must be depressed because all my blood results were normal. They just weren't booking the right blood tests! 

You really will have to keep on insisting that your symptoms are taken seriously until you can get a more proactive practitioner. 

Wishing you all the best.

I read that fatigue is one if the main reasons people go to see their doctors. As Jaybelle says a lot of them could be suffering from vit D deficiency.

Hi I know exactly how you feel, is your heart and BP normal? If so brilliant, then think am I taking medication that might make me feel so tired?  If neither then am I anxious that while I am better it might happen again? If you went to neurology Why? Did you go because your legs felt numb or tingle? Was the equipment modern? Was it for small fibre nueropathy? Have you had of have damage to your sinal chord, do you have a bendy spine scoliosis? Do your hands or legs change colour from red to white and possibly blue Raynaulds? Beyond that I am sorry I can't think of  much more, but I hope it has helped to give you some thoughts as to what is going on ❤️

Finally diagnosis.  Chronic fatigue syndrome and dysautonomia.  There goes my driving privileges!

I do mot know where you luve but i would say to check your b12 levels which should range between 400-600 to feel good. I think the uk has it at 200 which is so low. If they sell b12 the M one its sublungual and you would use it daily. 2500mg if available. Not sure how the uk works with this. Normal blood tests are relative and very from different parts of the world. Lower your junk intake because lots of carbs and junk soak up your energy to convert them to fat. Vitamin D should be around 25. Any vitamins you take are best in liquid forms as they absorb much better then hard pills which usally  just leave your body without much a sorbtion at all. Its not your imagination at all. Stress depletes the body of everything especially c and all b vitamins as it makes the body produce cortisol and adrenaline constantly. Most doctors are rushing and do not really care at all as they need to fill their own quota on seeing patients. They will only find what they are looking for in their mindset. An old older and lovely doctor once told me that before he retired and it made so much sense. A standard bloodtest reveals a little but there are tons of tests out there drs do not bother with as insurance wont cover it and they dont bother telling the patients about it all.
