For the last decade, my "energy level" has dropped every year. It was not great when we retired, but I could still hike 4-6 miles and stay up past midnight.
In the last 3-4 years, less than 2 miles has been my limit and I might start yawning at 6pm and will be asleep before 9.
I started using a CPAP during this time and it pushed my "energy level" way up, but the good effects wore off after three months.
I took CoQ10 and again my "energy level" went up for a month, then it went back down. I continue it as my doctor says it a good thing for anyone on a statin.
I had all sorts of tests done, even a heart cath. My heart and lung functions were considered normal.
Meanwhile, my doctor was looking at my blood platelets. I don't know but guessing this is not a normal part of a blood test. They were low but on a roller coaster. After three years the trend, even with ups and downs, has been down. I am not to the required treatable threshold, but getting there.
Anyway, this is the reason for my complaint of fatigue.
