If I get too low, I sometimes feel tired. Do you have all your blood tests from radiation? If not, I'd check with whoever has those records to see if they ran a TSH.
After radiation, the dietician put me on 500mg vitamin C a day, Zinc sulfate for taste and fast healing and a multivitamin. Are you taking any supplements? You might ask your doctor.
How is your diet and execise? If not good, has a dietician been consulted?
I hope you get to the bottom of this soon. That is too long to still be feeling exhausted.
Take care, Eileen
