Suggest Treatment For Severe Fatigue

I am 57 years old. I have been battling fatigue, but recently it has gotten almost ridiculous. 2 days ago I was unable to drive 30 minutes to work without stopping because I was falling asleep. When I got to work I made a pillow out of a roll of paper towels and laid down on the floor. It became clear I was of no use at work, so I left after an hour or so. On the drive home I was falling asleep. It was scary. Yesterday I wasn t as bad. Today I was every bit as sleepy. Absolutely could not stay awake. Total exhaustion.
