Feel exhausted and forget simple thing
My name is Ashitha, my contact no: 85xxxxxx04 and my email is xxxxxxxxxxx@gmail.com. I am a 36 yr old working official. From past few months I feel too exhausted. I sleep for 7 yrs still I wake up exhausted. I had taken a blood test for my hives allergies and have vitamin B12 and Vitamin D deficiency. My thyroid levels are normal.

Vitamin B12 and D deficiency are a very common cause of feeling exhausted even after a full night's sleep, and with your thyroid normal, these two are likely driving most of your tiredness right now.
Next Steps
Correcting your B12 and D levels as your doctor advises usually improves energy over 6 to 8 weeks. Getting your iron levels and a complete blood count checked is also worth doing, since low iron causes similar fatigue.
Health Tips
See a physician if the exhaustion doesn't ease once these levels improve, or if you notice weight changes, hair fall or low mood alongside it.
