The short answer is give it more time. Three and a half weeks isn't a full trial yet. The chemicals haven't had a full chance to straighten out. More benefit may be coming.
If the fatigue has been longstanding and you've been inactive for a long time, the current loss of energy may also be due to the inactivity. You may need to start slowly exercising, just walking 10 minutes at a time 2 or 3 times a day will get the circulation going, improve you lung capacity so you don't feel exhausted so quick, and improve oxygen to the brain which needs it now that you've found a medication that is helpful.
Take vitamins, just a good multi should help. Vitamin B complex will also help energy.
