Answer 1

Do you have a family history of diabetes? If so, and even with no family history, you should be checked by your doctor. High blood sugars can lead to increased appetite and being extremely tired. I had to take a 2 hour nap after only working for 4 hours before finding out that I was a diabetic.

Answer 2

try taking vitamins for the tiredness. My mom used to sleep all the time, and since she started taking vitamins, she never even takes a nap!

Try seeing how many calories you eat in a day, you might not be getting enough.

Also, are you very skinny? if you eat a lot, and are hungry all the time and are very skinny, you might have a tape worm or something...

Answer 3

If you know your eating and sleeping enough and still feel this way. Best thing would be is to see a doctor. My mother was like that. And now it turns out she's diabetic.

Answer 4

Hi it sounds like you need more protein & iron in your diet.

You should go and get a iron test, its a simple finger prick but its literally that simple.

So they may ask you to take an iron pill but chances are you should just add some more lean protein (skin milk, low milk fat cheese, egg whites, lean meats, etc).

You'll find you'll have more energy soon

Answer 5

Are you depressed about something? Maybe your brain is not making enough serotonin. Another reason might be that there's too much sugar in your diet.

Answer 6

You may have anemia dear heart. Please see your family doctor and have him check your blood so he will prescribe something for you to get better.

Answer 7
