Symptoms of disease or imagination?

Hello,

For the last couple weeks i feel tired all the time. No matter the amount of sleep i get its extremely hard to get out of bed. I have been getting light throbbing headaches as well, some worse than others. I feel weak and lazy as if all i want to do is lay around all the time and physical activities wear me out easily. I also noticed lately that i bruise very easily. I dont know what is going on with my body if there is a reason for it or if I am just over reacting. Im so confused and tired of being tired! Please help!

I agree that you should see your pediatrician/doctor. What do your parents say? There are several things that could be going on with you; it could literally be anything causing you to feel the way you do. It could be something as simple as you aren't sleeping well enough (deep enough) and not getting the 9-10 hours of sleep that is actually needed by teens, to something as serious as luekemia. Problems with the heart can also cause the problems you are having or you could also be anemic or have clotting issues with your blood. Have an appoinment and be evaluated.

You could be anemic. Please do go to the doctor as soon as you can, and get this checked out. I hope you feel better soon.
