In the year 2020, serious high-level doctors go to blood tests right away to see what is going on. Then based on the results of those tests, if there is an imbalance, they can diagnose the disease or order more specific blood tests.
When they figure out the actual reason for the imbalance through the specific tests they can get a testing laboratory confirmed diagnosis. With this diagnosis they refer to the guidelines for the drugs to prescribe for that specific ailment. Then its a matter of the person's body getting used to the drugs, and then optimizing the dosage for that person. Usually the first drug works very well in the person, but sometimes some drugs don't work well in a person, so then the doctor follows the steps in the guidelines for alternative drugs. It takes maybe 6 months to a year for the persons body to get fully used to the new drug and to find the optimized dose for that person.
Blood tests to get done:
Fasting Glucose (Insulin function)
Liver Enzymes
Kidney Health
Electrolyte Balances (Sodium & Potassium)
BNP (Heart function)
Ferritin/Iron levels
White blood cell count
Thyroid TSH
Cortisol
Basically if any of these levels are out of balance, the person is going to feel sick, weak, low energy, depressed, sore muscles/joints, mental fog, etc.
I can't really think of a reason someone who is constantly of low-vitality/low-energy would NOT get these tests done. I mean assuming they had access to these tests.
