I get like that when my iron is low. I am borderline anemic. I know when it is low because my eyes look like I am tired and I get purple under my eyes. I tend to feel very sleepy. I take a multivitamin now since I am dieting that way I can make sure that I am getting enough iron. So request an iron test.
You could have iron deficiency ( Anemia ) . It is more common in females since they lose allot of iron during menstruation. Also you could not be eating enough leafy green vegetables.
Yeah and request an blood test so they could check your iron while at the doctors
You could also not be getting enough sleep. You need at least 8-9 hours of sleepy a night, and don't alter around your sleeping shedule too much.
hi, yes i know these symptons, it sounds like u could be a little anemic so your doctor will probably run a blood test & it will let him or her know if u r or not. it can be taken care of with meds so don't worry about it & keep the doctors appointment so u will know for sure. good luck.
pcos is a complex disease and long term affects of glucophage for its treatment unknown as far as I know
- dehydration
- inflamation of your eyes
- systemic problems
- anatomy
How long did you have it like that?
is it changing in shape and size, color?
itchy? watery?
Could be any or none, difficult to say without seeing
do u rub you eyes to cause red eye lids. sounds like low blood count and could be many things low thyroid causes fatigue and weakness circles, but red eye lids has to be from rubbing or some kind of immume disease where your cells are attacking your own system the t 4 cells invade and destroy your immume system and cause lupus that is self deteriorating weakness, fatigue, puffy eyes, red eyelids(i'm baffled, have to look that up)could be from congestive heart failure, renal failure, allergy or hypothroidism(myxedema, or pink eye, some kind of irrritation, even hemmorrhage.good luck hope u surivive until next week.maybe anemia, or broken blood vessels petechiae)or venous stasis, varicose veins excess blood in capillaries or hyperpigmentation of the skin, rash, too many red blood cells,not anemia since eyelids would be pale.low platel,et count thrombocytopenia or scurvy which is vitamin c deficiency.
