have you had blood work done? of course you have or you wouldn't know about the polycythemia. have you been checked for copd? i was diagnosed in late february with copd polycythemia and pick wickian syndrome ( basically what ever ailments they can blame on obesity i am 60 lbs overweight ) once i went on oxygen 24/7 everything turned around. i had all of your symptoms. the fatigue the apnea kidney pain all because i wasn't getting enough oxygen. within two months my body had reversed the polycythemia and i am working on losing the weight. the oxygen 24/7 is a small price to pay for the results. but i have to thank the lord that we have excellent health insurance. good luck
