Armchair medical advice here:

1) see a doc. While there, along with other checks, check for diabeties and insulin resistance. The tests that don't require testing glucose levels after drinking a lot of sugar aren't as effective. 2) Assuming insulin related issues, check out the keto diet or something siimilar. One can become a fat burner instead of a sugar/carb burner. Thin people who are also fat burners have a month's worth of energy even without eating. Not a couple hours of fluctuating glucose levels like many. It has worked for me. I couldn't keep my eyes open in the afternoon, would frequently feel awful especially after eating high sugar things like a milkshake, and I did OK at the doctor's tests for diabetics which runs in the family. After a number of months I am no longer overweight. (Note that the FDA recommends we eat what the Agricultural industry happens to sell most of--mostly grains.) None of this may be applicable to you. But for me it was quite a puzzle after seeing a doctor and getting nowhere so consider it a possibility if you get no working answers from your doctor.

This is me being dumb, I find it hard to believe that I would have diabetes (not saying that's what you said). I also realize (I think as you mentioned) that skinny people can be diabetic. Seems bad like how did I get this? Eating too much sugary foods over time? I've come across the ketogenic diet. I'll check it out/try things, doctor is not an option at this time. I will also try to not eat salt anymore. It's tough life changes. Thanks.
