I have been feeling weak and tired the last few days. I haven't been eating sweets for over a week. Could that be a reason why I feel weak and tired?

You could actually be sugar intolerant.  As long as you are ingesting an offensive substance, your body fights to maintain homostasis.  When you've been off of it for a while, you have withdrawal and detoxification symptoms.  You may also have severe cravings.  \n\nMake sure you are drinking plenty of pure water and fresh fruit and vegetables.  They'll help with the detox process.  \n\nAlso it would be good to get a check up.  Have your blood glucose levels checked and your thyroid and adrenal function.  You could be resorting to sugar to give you a boost because something else is amiss.

Low iron is definitely a possibility.\nI was diagnosed with having low iron as well as being anemic and I felt exhausted all of the time. But I had no idea until I almost passed out and had bloodwork done at the doctor's office.\nAlso, it could be an indication of diabetes or a thyroid condition.\nIt could be a many number of potential health problems. I suggest seeing your physician and having bloodwork done.

yess..i'm afraid so..the condition is called hypoglycemia.. hypoglycemia can make u aggressive or u may feel weak, drowsy, confused, hungry, or dizzy..paleness, headache, irritability, trembling, sweating, rapid heart beat, and a cold, clammy feeling are also signs of low blood sugar..in severe cases, a person can lose consciousness and even lapse into a coma..it's best to always have sweets in ur pocket for emergencies..good luck!! =)

I had this problem. too!\nI really thought it was something with my heart...\nI went to doctor and he said that was just a result on stress and overworking (overstudying)... So, he said that the best thing is just relax and go to the gym to energize there...\nI did that...\nI started to go to the gym: not so often and i didn't work out very much...But, it helped..\nAnd, i started to eat a little less (but i didn't eat too much, just though to let you know :) )...and because of that i begun to feel lighter and all pains gone...\nHope, that will help at least a little bit :)\nHope that nothing serious with you\nTake care

Your blood pressure, pulse and weight sound o.k., but I think you should go and see your doctor just to make sure.\n\nHave you had any blood sugar problems previously?  What is your hemoglobin levels like now?  Did you feel any better after you ate?

I really don't think chocolate will do more but satisfy a craving and make you gain weight.If you are feeling weak and tired all the time,maybe you should have your dr check your hemoglobin you could be anemic,you could try some Over the counter Iron Pills.

Although you have eaten, it was 5 hours ago. the fact that you are feeling sick is your bodies way of telling you your blood glucose levels are low. Your body uses glucose for energy and you are using a lot of energy whilst running.\nBest thing would be to have an energy drink whilst running or leaving 2-3 hours after eating, before running. \nJust don't eat anything too heavy. Complex carbohydrates are a good supply of slow releasing energy (pasta, rice, wholemeal bread etc).\nIf you are worried and this has never happened before, it is probably an idea to go see your doctor. if you you live in the UK you could get the advice from NHS direct (telephone helpline)

Anemia, depression, and low blood sugar are some of the possibilities. See your doctor.

You could be anemic or other possible ailments. Whether or not you had sugar or not that day is irrelevant if you have diabetes. Go see your doctor for a check-up. Good luck

A first approach would be to check on your diet.  Make sure you take a good multivitamin.  Eat a sensible breakfast and lunch, but avoid slamming down too many simple carbs during the day.  Often, after your blood sugar skyrockets, it will subsequently crash.  It's also possible you need even more sleep than 6-7 hours.  Do you feel refreshed in the morning?  If not, you may not be sleeping very well. \n\nIf the "homebrew" approaches don't work, talk to a doc.  They'll be able to give you better advice and rule out any medical causes (thyroid, anemia, etc).

Yes it is possible you are pregnant. If you are always tired you need to check w/ a Dr. I had gestational diabetes and that made me week and tired. If you don't get tested for it and have it you could have a large baby! If you have it you need to get it under control.

LOL  might be possible but you may feel like sh*t all day.\nlike that guy that ate nothing but mcdonalds all day for a month.\nhe GAINED tons of weight and was in poor health.\nhe made a movie out of it.  i cant remember his name though.

It sure does sound like some classic symptoms of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). But it could be something else too, see your doctor.\nEating more smaller meals throughout the day can help. I carry peanuts, peanut butter crackers, or a jar of peanut butter with me, as the protein binds better and longer than traditionally eating a piece of candy or drinking orange juice. \nI would however prefer you see your doctor and have the testing done as if you are, they can get you on the right track with diet and such. See your doctor.

Extreme tiredness, and feelings of depression. It's a long, hard road, but there is an end to it. Feel better soon xx

I would go to your primary care physician and be completely honest as you have been here.  It could be depression without your knowing it, it could also be hormonal or loads of other things.  Wouldn't you rather just feel better?  I went, and am so grateful I did.
