I am a 24 year old female, who is generally healthy. I am usually not sick that often; however, lately I’ve been so tired. I have always enjoyed sleeping and require quite a bit of sleep. I can get 7-9 hours of sleep a night, which should be plenty for someone of my age and health; however, I’m so tired. I feel like I only got about 3 hours of sleep. I work alot (fulltime 40 hours per week and teach dance parttime 3 nights a week), so that keeps me busy…but even so, why would I be so tired all the time? Are there any vitamins that I could take that would help? Any diet suggestions? I am within a normal weight, am active…but I know I could be eating better. Not that I’m eating horrible foods for me, but just not foods with tons of nutrients I’m sure. Also, a week and a half ago I had a kidney stone for the first time, of which I’m contributing to what I’m eating, and lack of water.
What are your suggestions?
I just thought I should add. I sleep go to bed around 10-11:30pm and wake up between 6:30-7am. I work a normal 8-5 day. Three nights a week I teach dance from 6-9pm too. So, I am on a normal sleeping schedule. Even on the weekends. I generally feel better with about 10 hours of sleep, but I can’t ever get that many. Thank you for the vitamin suggestions. I might see a dietician at my gym about my diet too…I know I should be getting more protein.

My dog’s vet is currently out of town and about a month ago he had bladder stone surgery. They changed his diet completely and now he is on specific food to keep his pH levels in his urine normal to prevent the stones from coming back. All of the sudden he starts urinating clear. He stopped eating store-bought treats and drinks a lot of water and eats peas for a treat. I talked to a different vet who I am not familiar with and she took his urine yesterday and said his urine is extrememly diluted which is bad. Then she kept going on and on that he could have kidney failure, a tumor, or some kind of hormone disease!!! I was like hold on a minute here!!! He just had a full blood work up done a month ago and all of his organs are working fine and he’s totally healthy besides the stones that were removed. I think she hasn’t had too much experience it seemed. So after looked in his chart and noticed this, she had a change of heart on all the tests she wanted to perform. I told her, listen, I am not a vet whatsoever, but don’t you think it’s kind of a coinsidence that my dog starts urinating clear after being on this new diet? I feel like he is not getting the other nutrients he needs. My dog used to eat meat everyday (Beneful Ready Meals) and now hes like on a canned diet and only drinks water and eats peas! So she looked at me and said I’m going to have to call an internist and see if this is normal from the food. Then she sent me home! How do you tell someone their dog could be diseased and then send them home!?! She was supposed to call me today and never did! So now I’m worried and concerned because I don’t know what to think or believe and my vet doesn’t get back until next week. I searched this clear urine problem online and I get mixed answers. I read it’s good because his body is flushed out and then I read it’s a sign of kidney problems because the kidneys are not flushing the urine out properly. So now what? I can’t sleep and this is my only hope to find an answer. My Aunt’s dog recently died from kidney failure and it was so tramatizing to me, so ….PLEASE HELP!
