I have a really weird craving...?


I have a craving for dog food and ice.
I'm eating the ice right now, not so sure about the dog food, but I have a really strong craving for it.

Is that weird or what?

I do get tired a lot too, most of the day. Sometimes I'm almost half asleep, but right now I'm fully awake, my second wind or something. I also think I might be sleep deprived, because my eyes shake (Nystagmus).

Anemia causes fatigue and for some reason people who are anemic often crave chewing on ice. Beats me why. Women are prone to anemia. You could try self-treating by taking an over-the-counter iron supplement once a day, or you could go to the doctor and get your hemoglobin and ferritin tested. That would let you know for sure if this is the problem.

Don't eat the dog food. :-P Try liver!
