This might be a good time to raise the flag someone else always did -
get your thyroid checked. It turned out my lack of energy wasn't just
old age.

Seconded.

I was in my late Forties when thyroid troubles were picked up in
connection with something else.
I had suffered periods of low energy for decades which I put down to
just being me and accepting that some people can be full of energy and
always have get up and go and I was the opposite.
Never had any ailments that took me near a Doctors surgery from my
20's till my late forties. If the thyroid trouble had been picked up
earlier then I may have got a lot more done rather than coming home
from work and falling asleep for hours.
