Hi,
I've recently been told my blood pressure was too high when measured, i'm always warm/sweaty, i've had on rather rare occasion a chest pain in my chest towards the left hand side. Also for the past year, i've been having problems with my bowel movements, they're regular and loose. Also, i've noticed my hair is thinning, and i seem to be shedding over night. I'm only 19 years old, please don't tell me i'm going bald, too young! What's up? am i just falling apart, haha?
I do go out a lot, as in drinking with my friends, and shamefully i do tend to binge, just out of curiousity, could this be a reason? would the hair grow back if i were to cut down?

This constellation of symptoms could have a lot of causes... I doubt at your age that drinking is the culprit, however.  See your doctor.  I'd want to look at a number of things, but thyroid hormone excess would be high on my list to consider first.
