PLEASE DON'T LET THE LENGTH SCARE YOU OFF! I don't even think that it is that long.
Before I start let me tell you about me. I am 14yrsold, female, had my period since age 12 (got it september 2006,it is pretty average®ular) I am tall and slender. I weigh between 120lbs-125lbs (its always varying.)
I've had a touch of pneunomia when I was 2, chicken pox when I was 4 and the stomach flu about once a year.
In March 2007 I was taken to the doctor because of persistant fatigue. They ran several blood and urine tests - 1rst they suspected a liver problem but that was proved wrong w/the next blood test. They also suspected Crohns but they threw that idea away. In the end I was diagnosed w/a touch of Infectious mononucleosis.
Now, about 1.5 years later I still am normally fatigued. I'm not totally sure if is been constant for that whole time, but for the past few months it has been. Along w/that I have had these symptoms on and off:
I know that there is more, but they aren't coming to me. So I guess that means they aren't as common as the above. I am going to the doctors soon (around the 18th) but I want your in-put. What is causing all these? do you have an idea? None of them last all the time except being tired a lot and the nighttime urination. All others are on and off. Sometimes I can go a week without some of them!
If you need to ask me questions, go ahead.
If this helps, diabetes is a common-ish thing in my mom's side of the family (she doesn't have it though) and heart problems run in my dad's side. He had a heart attack in october and is only 45!
Well, thanks for at least reading this!

Now, about 1.5 years later I still am normally fatigued. I'm not totally sure if is been constant for that whole time, but for the past few months it has been. Along w/that I have had these symptoms on and off:
- Headaches - varying. 1rst was mild to moderate but lasted almost two weeks. Have had a few sicne then. Normally get worse when I aply pressure (ex: resting head on pillow) or when I lay down.
- Tingling/numbness - on and off. Most commonly in hands or feet. Lasts on average 5 to 10 minutes. Recently I've awoken to find my arm asleep although not in awkward position.
- Lightheadedness - mild. Always when getting out of bed if I don't take it slowly. Sometimes after being upside down (I'm in gymnastics) or sometimes for no apparent reason.
- Heart palpitations - they seem to come randomly. sometimes easier to feel than others. I find my heart rate goes up fast when I exercise and I get more tired quickly while exercising too.
- Urination during night - 3 times on average but if not, I need to go really bad when I wake up. I seem to go more during daytime than my peers at school.
- Fevers - only a few. For a day on and off when I have them. A lot of the time my skin feels hot (or quite warm) to touch.
- Mood swings - not eveyrday, but often. It has no relation to my period or PMSing. They can be quite extreme.
- Abdominal pain - lasts only up to a minute (average.) Feels kind of like someone stuck a needle in me. Not cramp like. Near my belly button when on right side or up further on left.
- Burning eyes- sometimes my eyes will feel hot, almost as if they are burning.
- I get out of breath easily - sometimes all it takes is going from down stairs to my bedroom upstairs. Most of the time I can get it back quite quickly.
- Pains - I think I've had a pain pretty much everywheres. It normally feels dull and sore but not severe. Never lasts more than a day at a time.

This has only happened once but I will still go and take a look at it.
which I think is so random, considering I haven't any symtpoms except for that I go to the bathroom just a very tiny bit more than most people. But maybe this means that it isn't a very bad infection. All I need is to take some antibiotics, although I don't have any details about that yet.
