Diagnosis Checklist: Questions your doctor may ask (and why!)

During a consultation, your doctor will use various techniques in their assessment of Listlessness. Your doctor may ask several questions when assessing your condition. It is important to remember that your consultation is a two-way process and any extra information you can share with your doctor about your symptoms may help them with their diagnosis. Some of the questions your doctor may ask are listed below:

• How long have you felt listless? - to determine if acute or chronic.
• Is the listlessness intermittent or constant? - Intermittent listlessness may suggest myasthenia gravis. Constant listlessness may be due to any of the other disorders, however if not associated with weight loss should consider a psychiatric disorder.
• Are there simple reasons to explain listlessness? - e.g. not getting enough sleep, sleep debt, shift work, jet lag and boredom.
• What is the quality of your sleep? - e.g. insomnia, obstructive sleep apnea, narcolepsy. Sleep disturbance is a common cause of listlessness.
• What are your stressors at the moment? - questions specifically about relationship, family, children, social support, occupation, general physical health and financial stresses. Stress related to lifestyle is the commonest cause of listlessness.
