What Causes Severe Fatigue, Tinnitus And Sleeplessness?

I Am a 53 year old male. I get regular exercise and have been in good health. My blood pressure has been in normal range about 118/78 . I have been experiencing bouts of extreme fatigue lasting about 2 hours at a time and have constant ringing in my ears. Despite the bouts of fatigue I have had trouble falling asleep at night. I work 11 hours days for 10 day stretches and after being off for 7 days , I am getting ready to travel and work another 10 day shift. I have been unable to get in to see my doctor. Not sure what to do and should I be concerned?

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have severe fatigue, tinnitus and sleeplessness . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like middle ear infection , labyrinthitis , side-effect , food poisoning , irritable bowel syndrome or gastroenteritis. But in your case the symptoms can also occur due to stress and anxiety for that you must consult psychiatrists. I would suggest you to eat light and non spicy , drink plenty of water take small and frequent meals , take antihistamine like benadryl twice a day and take antacid after every meal . Consult ENT specialist for proper examination . Doctor may prescribe omeprazole , ornidazole , immunosuppressants along with lopramide and supplement like ginkgo biloba . Do meditation and yoga that will help you alot.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
