Question: Is it just stress!? Or is it more than that!?
My 19 yr!. old brother lives with me!. He works at a small factory 8 hours a day seven days a week with the occasional day or half day off usually once a week!. He just quit drinking about six weeks ago, he was a every day get as drunk as you can type(don't think this has anything to do with it but you never know)!. For the past three days he has been complaining about not being able to stay awake, lack of muscle strength, feeling faint, and just not feeling well!. He also has had some shakiness and looks pale!. He took yesterday off and went to work this morning only to have his boss drive him home about an hour and a half later!. He was afraid to drive his truck home!.

Can't he afford to see a doctor!? If he is feeling that poorly, he should be checked out!. Also why in the world is he working himself to death 7 days per week at his age!? He should have at least one day per week to himself to rest up and do what he wants!. It wouldn't surprise me if he is exhausted physically and mentally!. He needs to get another job if his boss won't give him a day off!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
