dizzy, no appetite, nausea, exhausted, hair loss, fatigue

ive been feeling drained for the past 3/4 weeks. at first i thought it was just because i had a cold but as i got better, my symptoms seemed to get worse. it didn't start hitting me until i started losing chunks of my hair about 2 weeks ago. it was as if it were breaking off in the middle and not at the root. i've been taking vit B12 to help but i'm still losing my hair. i also found i just had no appetite, which made me nauseous so it was a vicious cycle of not being hungry enough to eat yet not being able to keep anything down without throwing up. sometimes i find i have to force feed myself small little portions. i had a 6 inch sub yesterday. i ate half no problem, feeling fine, but when i triede to go for the next bite, i couldn't swallow it.

i do have IBS, lactose intolerance and a weak immune system. i looked up online my symptoms online and found that most the answers lead to me to hypothyroidism. but i'm also wondering if its just simply a lack of energy or if its a real serious thing? please help me!
