Hi Thank you for asking HCM. I have gone through your query. As you are having general weakness of body better to rule out any possibility of inflammatory process running in body. A blood and urine routine investigation should be done initially to find out any signs of this. You should also make sure that you are taking a balanced diet with all essential nutrients. A low b12 or vitamin D also can give such symptoms. So better to look for blood levels of those also. If those are low then supplementation of it will be helpful. If no reasons are found then it can be fibromyalgia and in such case antidepressants like duloxetine will be helpful. Physiotherapy and cardiovascular exercises will help some to overcome it also. Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear. Thanks.
