My husband is in his late 60s and lately hes been feeling very sleepy, lethargic, and general weakness. He sleeps at least 8 hours a night, but awakes just as tired as when he went to bed. He has absolutely no energy even after a full nights sleep and even spending most of the day in bed he was so bushed he could hardly walk. Thank you for any suggestions you can lend.
Hi, it is very important at his age that you seek a medical consult immediately since it could mean that he has an infection that is causing the weakness. It is very common for an infection to present with lethargy and sleepiness and fever or tiredness, though it could also be normal if this trend has been going on for a long period of time like months. So don't ignore his health and meet your Physician soon.
