Today's Case A 20-year-old female presents to her primary care doctor over summer break complaining of worsening fatigue for the past 6 months. She is constantly tired and lacks the energy to do her usual summer activities with her friends. She denies associated weight loss, heat/cold intolerance, anhedonia, drug use, menorrhagia, unprotected sexual contacts, shortness of breath, skin rashes, or joint swelling. She does report mild episodes of diarrhea but it is well controlled with loperamide as needed. She states that she is a vegan since she started college to avoid the “freshman 15.” Fruits, vegetables, cereals, and pastas are now the cornerstones of her diet.
