Just to add to Nicole's latest post, Vitamin C and B5 are critical for adrenal health. Poor functioning adrenal glands will impact energy. We found John deficient in both.

Oral B12 at 5000mcg of the methly form is very effective at replenishing B12. So if they don't want to give you B12 shot, you can take of this yourself. You would also need to supplement all the other B vitamins. They need each other to work.

Have you had your thyroid checked. The thyroid and adrenal are linked. A few year back they modified the reference range of TSH and many docs still don't realize it.
