Feeling Weak, Headache, Frequent Urination, Blurred Vision, Lightheaded. Any Ideas?

hi, i am a female aged 17 and i do not have a period as i know that could cause some symptoms. I constantly feel weak all the time, like i have no energy. I have a piercing headache everyday which wakes me up every night and impacts my daily life, especially at school as i cant concentrate on anything. I am always tired like i cant get enough sleep and i am always thirsty even though i drink about 3 liters of water a day. I urinate a lot and my vision is becoming blurred. I also get a racing heart beat when i stand up for 2 minutes or longer and feel very lightheaded like i am going to faint. i don't know what's wrong, any suggestions?

Hi,

Although it is difficult to help with so little details, here are some pointers for you. Testing your blood for serum electrolyte levels is a must as electrolyte disturbances can explain most of your symptoms. Depression and anxiety disorders also can present with similar symptoms, but then there would be other symptoms as well, like low mood, loss of interest, anxiety etc. I suggest that you do not neglect this and see a doctor, so that you can be examined in detail and guided appropriately.

Hope this helps you. Best wishes.
