Asking for Self, Male, 27 years old, Mardan
Doctor, I have severe brain tiredness, mental fatigue, brain fog, and a feeling of burnout almost all day. I can't concentrate, focus, learn new things, or remember things properly. My memory is very poor, and I feel mentally exhausted even without doing anything. I also have a heavy, tired, painful feeling mainly at the back of my head and scalp, sometimes with back pain. These symptoms occur together and affect my daily life. They happen around 20–25 days a month and get much worse in winter. I sleep 7–8 hours but still wake up tired. Exercise sometimes gives slight relief. This problem has lasted 6–8 years. I have tried different antidepressants without significant improvement.
What could be causing these symptoms, what tests or examinations do I need, and how can I find the right treatment?
AOAWRWB thank you for reaching out at marham. Please have your baselines done which include CBC, LFTs, RFTs, Serum electrolytes and Thyroid function tests along with Serum Vitamin D levels. If these tests are within normal range, then a detained psychiatric history and assessment will be conducted to reach a diagnosis.
Aap ka masla bohat jald aur thori si medicine se bilkul theek ho sakta hai, fikar na karein. Tafseel se baat kar lein, kindly online mere appointment book kar lain
What about your thyroid and vit D status. Also do get a review from from your psychiatrist and discuss with him, if there is any ongoing chronic psychosocial issue . May be he need to review your meds as well. Help is available. You are never alone
