Lots of "symptoms"... is there a common link??

Hi! I have been having some symptoms lately and they are definitely out of the norm...Any help would be greatly appreciated!
A little about me: I am a 24 yr old female, am overweight (5'6' 190lbs), I work full time and go to college full time. At my full time night job I am a supervisor in my department and my job is very stressful. I usually end up working anywhere from 40-65 hours a week. I work from midnight to 8:30am most days (sometimes I come in a few hours early) and I go to school from 9amish to 2 or 3pm. I sleep from about 3-4pm until 10pmish. I study whenever I can squeeze it in my schedule (during lunch at work, when riding the bus at school, and on weekends when I don't have school (I usually end up working atleast 2 weekends a month). I live with my boyrfriend (we have been together for about 5 years) and we have a great relationship. He works nights as well, but doesnt go to school. I was in the Army but was released because I was overweight. I had a few minor injuries (tendonitis and a reocurring stress fracture) that prevented me from exercising enough to lose the weight fast enough. At the time I was 170 lbs and needed to be around 150. I live far away from my family and am basically supporting myself while the VA pays for my tuition. I will be cutting back my hours to part time when school starts next september. That being said, I know that stress is probably one of the main causes for my symptoms. I am just wondering if my symptoms may have a common link. I plan to go to a homeopathic docter next month.


Here are my symptoms...

~Strong smelling urine ( I drink ALOT of water and coffee to keep me going, and maybe a can of soda 1 or 2 times a week), the smell is kind of sweet... but it's hard for me to classify that.

~Lossing Hair (my hair has always been very fine and thin, and I generally shed quite a bit... but lately it seems like SO much more hair is falling out)

~Horizontal ridges in my thumbnails. (I just noticed this a few weeks ago... I recently started biting my nails again (stopped about 2 years ago), so I really noticed to ridges.

~Weight gain. I eat pretty healthy, generally every 3-4 hours, lots of fruit, lunch (or 4-5am to me because of my schedule) is my big meal. I do get REALLY hungry at the end of my day but I try to stick to healthy snacks. Yogurt, FF pudding, rice cakes, applesauce, stuff like that. I eat a lot of vegies, some kind of meat once or twice a day. I don't currently have the time to exercise... but I will be off school this summer and plan to spend my mornings trying to get back into shape.

~Constant shoulder and neck pain. I try to do a lot of stretches, I know this is because I carry all my tention in my neck and shoulders. I try to sleep on my back with my neck supported... but I usually end up sleeping on my stomach curled into myself.

~Sleepless 'nights'. My boyrfriend snores, so I have resorted to wearing ear-plugs when I sleep. I still wake up several times throughout the night as I am a VERY light sleeper.

~Severe grinding of teeth. I have continuosly chipped teeth and huge dentist bills due to this annoying yet subconscoius habit. I am getting a night guard made next week... I wonder if it will work?

~Eye allergies. This just started about 3 months ago. I have a very high prescription (-7.00 and -6.50 for those that know about nearsightedness) and used to only wear contacts. I have a cat and a dog who shed alot... but have had them for about 2 years and never had issues. My eye allergies got so bad where I couldn't wear my contacts at all or I was in misery. Then they started getting so bad that I could barely open my eyes when I woke up. I started using a prescription eye drop called Pataday. It works really well but I am worried that I may be stuck taking these drops FOREVER. That little bottle is the first thing I reach for when I wake up in the morning.

~Constantly tired. On the rare occasion when I actually get some time for myself I am exhausted and don't want to do ANYTHING. I feel like I am on auto-pilot otherwise.

Okay... that's all I can think of, for those of you that have read this far, thanks and sorry my post is so insanely wrong. I hope either someone can shed some light on my symptoms or the doctor can. :) Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

~ I forgot to add... I am extremely gassy and constipated. I feel as though the food I do eat doesn't get digested properly although I have continued to gain weight over the last year. (~30lbs)

yes. it looks that you have worms of various types in your entestines.

suggest you take 'cuprum oxydatum nigrum 3x' 4 tablets three times a day.

report after a week.
