I ached a lot as a teen and I think that's normal but usually over by 21. Tired and low could be iron deficiency which

if untreated leads to big problems but can be sorted out easily. Best to go to the doctors.

I read about that and yeah it could be. I'm not fond of the doctors, I haven't been since I was about seven or eight - but it might be time to go back again. I don't want to get anymore health problems.
Do you have iron deficiency?

There's lots of reasons the body can ache.
It's really best to have it checked out.

What do you think it could be? I'm scared it might be cancer.

That's why you need to get checked out.
Say it is cancer - not saying it is - but cancer in the early stages is much more treatable than if you leave it to develop out of fear of finding out.

Your right, I don't want to die, I spend enough time with the dead as it is. I have a doctors appointment at 4:25 this afternoon.

^ I've always wanted to work with the dead.
I have a very morbid curiosity with decomposition.
I'm probably a total weirdo.

I'm also very happy that you're seeing a doctor,

So have I - I'm morbid as well haha - It's actually a really interesting job, and it's nice to get to spend those final moments with them and making sure they look their best.

I'm scared about the doctors but it's best to go.

Keep us posted. Probably you'll find out it's a deficiency and you need to take whatever supplement. Or it's some kind of virus and you need antibiotics.

Well done for making the appointment. Is there a particular part you're afraid of?

18 months ago I felt very low, and numb areas on my body and kept getting bugs. I struggled with getting a

doctors appointment because at that time they insisted on phone on the day and discus over the phone

appointment system (I can't do this especially combination). I researched online and thought it was B12

deficiency or iron deficiency. Found out I was entitled to an overall health check which included blood tests so

I went for that and it was iron deficiency. They gave me a prescription and I felt a lot better within a few days.

It did not cover the numbness though so that is being looked into separately.
