40% Normal

I am hungry all the time. I have to eat every hour and even after I am done eating I’m hungry again an hour later. I do not know why this is I eat mostly protein like cow, pork, chicken. However that is usually all I crave and if I am still hungry I do not sleep I just sit there in pain. sometimes I will eat a lot for hours and still be starving and no I am not a big fatass I am very very thin. I do not have to do anything to stay thin either I could do nothing and still lose up to 3 pounds. Also I sweat ALOT I do not know if that makes a difference. Is it normal?

    See a doctor, there are a lot of things that can cause this. Also, how old are you? If you are young (Teen years) it can be normal due to a very active metabolism.

    Have you had your thyroid tested? You could have an extremely hyperactive thyroid. I'm not a doctor, nor do I play one on the Internet, but if you also have symptoms like irritability, a rapid heartbeat and nervousness, your thyroid is a good place to start looking.

    I know doctors taking your blood all the time can be nerve-wracking, but it's necessary if you want to find the answer to your health concerns. I have a hypoactive thyroid -- the opposite of a hyperactive thyroid -- and it was miserable until the doctors figured it out. Now I take a daily thyroid pill and voila, no more sleeping 14 hours a day and gaining weight despite hardly eating.

    See a doctor, please. It could change your life for the better.

    You might just be thirsty. Sounds kind of stupid, but they say if you're extremely thirst,y you can confuse the feeling of hunger and thirst. If you're eating a lot of those salty meats, you could be really thirsty because salts make you thirstier.
    Drink lots of water in between meals and see if you feel any better.

      Tapeworm is something that happens but it is not very common in my area and I hate sushi I do not see how I could have contracted it.

    not normal! see a doctor, there could be something wrong. I know people who are like you (super thin) and eat ALOT, but not this much as you are describing! seems weird, and if u don't eat at night u stay up in pain? that does not sound normal ;/

      yeah if I do not eat enough before I sleep I can not sleep. unless I’m not hungry I usually stay up in pain because I’m starving I can not sleep on an empty stomach.

    Go to a doctor as soon as possible. It sounds like there could be something very seriously wrong.

    It could be a fast metabolism. Have you seen a doctor?

      I have before they checked for if I was anemic said there was nothing. however they want to take a seperate viel to test every single problem and say they dont do everything in one viel they have taken tons of blood over the years but cant even give me my blood type . I aviod the doctor at most costs and they never tell me why they are blood testing me they just "we need to". so no I only go when nesscary. however I have had all my shots so I dint go unless super nescary. I have had all sort of odd tests since age 6 they never tell me whats wrong they just do whatever they feel like. I doubt itll do anything. My mom is begining to believe I might be type one but im not checking anything.
