For the past 4 days I have been SOOOO tired. I've been so tired to the point where I couldn't function and I almost forgot where I was. I got 10 hours of sleep 3 days ago, 8 and a half hours of sleep 2 days ago, and like 15 hours of sleep yesterday so it's not because I'm sleepy. I'm just so tired and I can barely move. And my body doesn't hurt. I DONT have a stomach or head ache or anything, I'm just soooo tired. I took my temperature and It's 98.7 so it's normal. It hasn't stopped for 4 days!!! I went to bed at 4 in the afternoon yesterday and slept until 10 a.m so I wouldn't feel tired today, but I still feel just as tired! Even when I pulled an all nighter about 6 months ago, I still didn't feel as tired then as I do now! I have no energy whatsoever and I drank a lot of water so I'm hydraded. I don't know what's wrong with me. What could be causing me being sooo tired and feeling so weak?
tiffanyD answered Sunday July 16 2006, 12:41 am: it could be any one of the things that other people have mentioned, or it could be mono. mono tends to make you really really tired. depending on how old you are, it might just be a phase. i agree with the other answers though, ask your doctor! are you on any prescription meds? sometimes those can make you drowsy. if you've been busy lately, your body may just be trying to make up for lost time. it might be burnout, if you've been going really strong before all this started. keep drinking water, and eat lots of fruit and vegetables, and again...ASK YOUR DOCTOR!

It might just be that for whatever reason, your body is craving sleep right now. It is possible to get to a stage where you are so tired it can take a very long time to get over it.
However, I would recommend that if you feel fatigued for longer than a week, you should really seek advice from your Doctor. I'm sure there's probably nothing to worry about but if you are concerned, make sure you get as much sleep as possible in the meantime and then make an appointment.

Nallie answered Friday July 14 2006, 7:16 pm: There are many things that can cause the symptoms you have described. Such as a viral infection, bacteral infection, a blood or an endocrine disorder. It's not fair to guess, because without a medical evaluation the truth may never be known.
You owe it to yourself to feel better, and since it's so short term don't wait on that Dr's visit, you may only get worse. [ Nallie's advice column | Ask Nallie A Question ]

GoodLuck
