A couple of weeks ago I started to become overly sensitive, ie i cry way easily and in the past week I've been craving rare red meat, which is odd for me 1 im really not found of red meat seafood and chicken is my usual meat if any and 2 rare meat is weird for me cause i've never been found of the the taste, but if i have a rare steak within 36 hours I get horrible cravings again! Any thoughts?

You're anemic and you are craving iron and protein. Have them check your ferritin and in the meantime take a vitamin supplement that is high in iron. :cool:
 
For any reason you have a "swing" like this I think you should go to a doctor for a checkup. You very well could have a blood sugar issue. Or who knows...but get a check up.

I've had blood tests done alot, never been told i was anemic, docs say this isnt anything to be worried about, and i take a multi-vitamin
 
Right..plus college doctors are idiots, i got the flu and they thought it was the clap, even tho im a virgin

and we'll kinda be dead after 2012 ;) lol

Ain't it the truth? We called the doctor at our college Dr. Darvon because he handed that out for everything. He was scary.
 
are you sure you're not on your period? those sound like the types of symptoms i get whenever i'm about to rag... i'm j/k, i know you're a dude.

my best guess would to be to head to the doc's and get your cravings checked out. also, talk to a counselor at school as to why you're having emotional outbursts too. i know all will be better in due time.

Uh-huh, poor college doctors are universal - when I presented at the college doc with leg pains, stating I was both on the pill and a smoker, he told me to walk it off. A week later I went to the ER and was diagnosed with a DVT. :rolleyes:

To the OP whenever I crave something it's usually your body telling you that you need the nutrients in it. I hate orange juice and bananas but get a craving for them every now and then.
In terms of the University Health Clinic docs, I had one that was pretty amazing, he suggested 10 years before the AIDS epidemic that it might be a good idea to wear condoms.
 
Guys have hormone swings just as do women. Surveys of men have found that most men have effects such as cravings, irratibility etc in correlation to variation of hormones. Maybe it's that?

I doubt it would be anything to do with nutrient deficiencies. Generally speaking thats not an issue unless your in a 3rd world country not eating or your not eating much to begin with. Usually most of the time we are consuming excess of needed nutrients.

I'd also say now that your away of it you'll probably notice it quite a bit more.
