Exhausted, sick frequently and scared, help!

Hey guys! It's been a long time since I've been on here, too long! Kind of a confession if doing a bad job.... So here it goes... I've lost 160lbs and I couldn't be happier! BUT! I don't know what's wrong with me anymore. My labs are ok, I had mild anemia that resolved but other than that nothing is obviously wrong clinically. Here is what I'm experiencing: -extreme fatigue -my body itches -my brain is fuzzy -sometimes it's hard to concentrate -tingling in my toes and sometimes my fingers -gas, cramping, bouts of diarrhea every other week -nausea on and off Those are my main symptoms. I don't have diabetes. I don't have thyroid problems (specifically checked for that) the only thing I can think of is I'm pretty sure I have a gluten intolerance and I'm not drinking enough water consistently. (I'll up my water for two or three days then go back to a liter for a couple days then up it again) My diet hasn't been great (too many carbs and junk food), i just started taking protein powder again, I've been drinking beer 2-3 times a week and I don't work out. I get sick really easily if I over exert myself. All of that I know I have to change immediately and will do but is there something I'm missing? Is anyone else having these issues? What really scares me is the exhaustion and brain foggyness. Please help!!! Anything will help thank you!
