Fatigue

I have been experiencing extreme fatigue that has been getting worse over the past several years. I've also been noticing memory loss... I have a hard time even remembering conversations, as if they never happened. I get very tired very quickly doing things that I've done for yrs (like mowing my lawn). My body literally starts trembling and my muscles get sore and very tired!! I've had my thyroid tested and that came back fine. What could possibly be going on??

I'm 33 years old and this started about 3 yrs ago and has been getting progressively worse since. I'm not aware of any similar family history.
I'm not sure that this feel like fibromyalgia (although I'm not too familiar with it). This isn't pain so much as it is extreme fatigue. After I do strenuous activities, my muscles tend to tremble, get very weak and painful at that point. I've also been experiencing memory loss (not sure if this is related... but it started around the same time).

It could be fibromyalgia, I would ask your doctor for an epstein barr blood test and other tests to rule it out.
