Sometimes a Virus May Be One of the Causes of Tiredness
August 2, 2009 2:57 pm HealthIt is possible to pick up viruses that make you feel like all you want to do is sleep. You may not be able to explain why you feel this way because nothing really hurts you. You may have a little bit of a sore throat, but other than that, you just have no energy. The causes of tiredness in this instance can be discovered through visiting your doctor and having a blood test done. A possibility is that you may have contracted the Epstein-Barr virus, which sometimes leads to mononucleosis. It is a virus that stays in the system and during a flare up, may make one extremely tired. There is no cure, only getting lots of rest until the body feels better.
