My fingernails have started to split down the centers from the cuticals to end of my nails. I can not stand the cold, I stay cold all the time if, it is 80 degrees in the house I am cuffered up. I get ill real guickly, I stay ill most of the time. I do not sleep good. I toss and turn all during the night. I wake up every other hour. I have swelling of the hands and fingers. My ams and legs ache mostly at night. My legs get really restless before bedtime. My hair is brital it comes out by the hand fulls. I have no patience at all. My monthly cycle only last one or two days at the most I never have it at the same time every month. I stay tired all the time I never fill like doing anything, I keep a headache. I have recently notice my eye site is not as good. Although I have not lost or gained weight I fell that there is something wrong I never used to be this way. It has gradually gotten worse after my third child. I am only 29 and I fill like I am 70 sometimes.

Answer 1/1 - Submitted 3/18/2009

I am wondering the same thing... I'm 26 with many of the same problems, including terrible acne, hair loss and extreme fatigue... I can definatly relate to feeling 70! NOTHING seems to help- over the counter or antibiotics/cream perscribed by my Dr. I just had a test done today to check my thyriod. I was wondering IF this IS a cause of acne, where do the breakouts tend to be? Below my jawline, my whole neck from ear to ear & the upper part of my back is broken out with painful cystic acne. This is so painful and depressing, I would'nt wish this on my worst enemy. All I can say is see your doctor and don't give up!
