What might be happening
Based on the information you've provided, possible causes of your symptoms include:
-
Hypothyroidism: This is a condition where your thyroid gland doesn't produce enough thyroid hormones. Symptoms can include fatigue, feeling cold, and sometimes nausea.
- Treatment typically involves taking a daily hormone replacement tablet called levothyroxine to raise your thyroid hormone levels.
-
Anemia: This is a condition where your body doesn't have enough red blood cells or hemoglobin. This can cause fatigue, feeling cold, and sometimes nausea.
- Treatment depends on the cause of the anemia, but can include dietary changes or supplements, medications, procedures, or surgery to treat blood loss.
-
Viral infection: Sometimes, a viral infection can cause symptoms like fatigue and nausea. If you have a fever, this might be more likely.
- Treatment usually involves rest, hydration, and over-the-counter remedies to manage symptoms.
Please note that these are just possibilities and not a definitive diagnosis.

- Keep yourself hydrated and ensure you're eating a balanced diet.
