Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

You are experiencing fatigue because there aren't enough blood cells to transport oxygen to the different organs(heart, brain, muscles, tissues) which carry out vital functions. Go to ER, simple investigations will diagnose the type of anaemia (Iron deficiency anaemia, aplastic anaemia, haemolytic anaemia, sickle cell, vitamin deficiency or chronic anaemia) you are suffering from. Neglect will lead to energy loss & weakness.In the meantime take iron tablets or tonic, multivitamin supplements, antacids, protein rich diet, diet rich in calcium, fruits & veggies. Take plenty of water, sleep well. Exercise regularly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,     
Dr. Nupur K.
