I am a 15 year old male and for the past month I have been finding it very difficult to stay wake past 7:00 PM and even when I wake up 8-12 hours later I'm still extremely tired. I also have very bad back pain and it almost never goes away. I've also had a cough for the past 5-6 months. I have been having headaches as well and I get extremely irritable around any sound. At first  I thought it was just over sleep but even when I sleep the recommended amount of time I still feel exhausted. I also suffer from Juvenile Diabetes so I don't know if it is attributed to that. I was just wondering if it's just a simple cold or is it something worse?

Oh I also forgot to mention my muscles have also been feeling very weak and I find it hard to do simple tasks. My stomach has also been very soar and I have a hard time eating certain foods like egg products (I can eat eggs by themselves but not in something like an omelette or keish) and fish (both of which I enjoy eating). I don't know how much those facts will add but hope it helps.

I'm not sure what the cause of all this is, but I'd recommend talking to a doctor. It seems like there are a lot of factors that could contribute, and there's a possibility that there are several issues that are worsening each other. Make an appointment and tell him/her what's going on. You'll probably get the best advice from a professional. But for right now, don't stress out, because stress will worsen just about anything. Good luck. :)
