recently diagnosed with ir and always very tired ??

Hello all, my name is Jessica and I am 26 yrs old. I was recently diagnosed with insulin resistance and I was wondering if anyone else is extremely tired all the time from this condition? At times I feel like I am so tired I can't concentrate and I actually feel like my brain is half asleep. Is this part of being ir? I have had my thyroid tested and it was fine. My problem started almost 2 years ago after I had my second baby. My endocrinologist.can't seem to link the fatigue to the ir and I am starting to think that I have some sort of horrible disease that is making me feel so tired.
Any advice?
Forgot to mention I am on metformin 500mg 2x day and I am on a low carb diet.

I can't comment on the IR part, but I think you might have better luck posting in the "PCOS/Insulin Resistance" sub forum, it's under "Dieting with Obstacles". I would post a direct link to it, but my post count is too low to post links.
