Been sleeping all day and can't eat for 3 days straight—any advice?

So, basically, just like the title says, I’ve been sleeping for three days straight. And I don't mean that "sleep, wake up, then go about my day" kind of thing. No—even while I'm typing this, I am so exhausted it’s actually unreal. Last night, I crashed at 9 PM, woke up at 3 AM, and then just drifted right back off until noon. On top of that, I can't even keep food down. I tried forcing myself to have some yogurt, but my stomach just rejected it immediately. I even went outside for a bit to try and clear my head—maybe catch some fresh air and snap out of it? But nothing works. I'm just hitting a wall again. My blood work came back fine, too, so... I honestly have no clue what's going on with me.

You provided information that belongs in a storybook. 🙄There are a million different reasons why someone would be "sleeping all the time." One highly probable explanation, assuming they are of reproductive age, is pregnancy. 😁

I forced myself to have some yogurt earlier and immediately threw it back up. I even went outside for some fresh air thinking it might help me snap out of it, but nothing works. I'm just crashing again. My blood work hasn't shown anything weird, so honestly, I have no idea what is going on.

Have you had your thyroid levels checked (T3, T4, and TSH)? If you haven't, get on that immediately. This could totally be it...

I’m definitely not pregnant—and I already had my thyroid checked out. My doctor was actually leaning toward a thyroid issue too, but turns out that wasn't it. The only things flagging in my bloodwork were my iron levels (way too low) and my blood sugar (running a bit high).

Then you're obviously exhausted because of those low iron levels.

I’m leaning toward blaming my iron levels too. Honestly, I can't help but wonder if I might be coming down with a virus or something else altogether.
