Problems with tiredness

[Samantha.]

I have shortness of breath usually at night. But yeah you should it runner beans and things because they have alot of iron in them and i HAVE To have Breakfast now because it makes me less tired and gives me energy. If you dont have breakfast start having it

Thats what my mum said to me, she told me to start eating breakfast like everyday. I mean I have it sometimes if I have enough time but she is like you have to eat it now. I don't like runner beans or anything that I know are rich in iron ;l My mum has suggested to put me on iron tablets

My mum took me to the doctors just to be on the safe side as i did faint for no apparent reason but yeah eating more iron and things should improve you tiredness

I shall try, can you give me some nice foods that are high in iron? Did the doctor recommend any foods?

I've been trying to get into a routine and it's not making much difference, I was talking to my mum about it and she thinks I might have anemia like other people have said because when I eat I don't eat a lot and stuff

I've tried energy drinks to try and make me up but there not making much difference

well the not eating thing is probably whats causing your drowsiness, you have no energy. dont do energy drinks btw those will make you wired for like 2 or 3 hours maybe and then just make you crash afterwords. do coffee or tea for caffeine, it wont put you out after a while.

All I know is that green vegetable have a lot of iron in them and I don't like any ;l

well then ya gotta decide whats more important to you then i guess, avoiding everything healthy or having energy. unfortunately theres not that many "delicious" foods with a lot of iron, unless you wanna eat a bunch of pizza.

I've started to drink a lot more tea than I used to, but i'll lay off the fizzy drink and your probably right about the drowsiness!
