Exhaustion with no appareant reason

Sent to Health Experts March 24 2006 at 5:33 AM
   

My boyfriend has a slight dull headache particularly in the lower back of his head and for the last week he has just felt extremely tired. He's been to the doctor and they did a series of blood tests and everything came back normal.

He urinates often or so he feels, but to me it seems to be has he always has. His PSA level was normal, an ultrasound showed his bladder to be normal.

He does have a stressful job (tax assessor) and works at a PC most of the day.

He just says he doesn't feel right? I haven't seen him feel so tired before, except after his mom passed away. He DJs on the weekends, but has had the last 4 weekends off, his does have a wedding to DJ this Saturday night.

Any suggestions?

There are many things that will make one tired. But to mention two that come to mind right off the bat with his symptoms is Chronic Fatique Syndrome and/or Depression. It is amazing as to what Depression side effects can be. You listed many of the symptoms.
