What Causes Sudden Loss Of Weight?

I am 16, 5'4, and I now weigh 108. I have been eating the same as always, but in the past 3-5 months I have lost 10 lbs.. a few days ago I started feeling weak. I am shaky, my body is kinda numb and tingly. I always get light headed when I stand, and sometimes fall. And I do not smoke, drink, or do drugs.

HI
Well come to HCM,
I really appreciate your concern, if there no clinical symptoms like low grade fever, loss of appetite, fatigue, chronic dry or productive cough, then this is nothing to worry, and some time this is likely to happen in this age but will be alright soon, hope this helps take care and have a nice day
I find this answer helpful
