Hey Cab,
Do you feel tired all the time?
Any weird aches & pains?
How long have you had the symptoms you describe?
What was your health like, immediately prior to the onset of these symptoms? (Any illness/virus that required antibiotics or similar meds?)
(regardless of the answer to my questions above.... I'd still advise going to the doc!)

The tiredness is true. I feel often tired, basically always. I drink lots of coffee due to this. I used to not drink although recently it has gone to around 5-10 cups a day. Although I drink also lots of water because of this. Aches & pains: old sports injuries only. I basically never have a head ache, although I often feel some kind of pressure in my head, in the temples. I have had this symptoms as long as I remember. Overally my health is fine. I am ill maybe every second year or so, which I guess is pretty normal. Usually some kind virus, like flu or angina.

Ditch the American diet. Make your foods from scratch. use more organically grown foods and it will help. Avoid eating cruciferious veggies without boiling them and watch the raw spinach. I had a similar thing happen and made a lot of changes and it is gone. I still have low blood volume, so I have to keep my BP up a little.
Homeade chicken soup with some cabbage, celery, carrots, onions, a clove of garlic, and ten drops of tabasco sauce or a chili pepper. Add a little salt and some pepper corns. A little soysauce helps to increase the tyramine levels. Throw a potato in it to. after a couple hours remove the meat from the bones and return the bones/scraps/skin to the pot. Eat some of the cabbage and potatoes and carrots at this time. Put the chicken in the fridge and boil the bones, scraps for at least three hours more. Strain out the juice to another pot and put it back on the burner. Pick at the bones and eat the veggies.
Skim the fat off the top of the soup and add a couple more celery stalks cut small, and a few carrots a little more onion and a crushed garlic. Return the chicken pieces from the fridge to the pot and add some more soy sauce to taste, a little salt can also be added at this time as well as a few more drops of tabasco sauce. Boil for about a half hour and add some rinsed frozen veggies. When it starts boiling again add noodles. Cook till the noodles are done. Reheat what you are going to use, not the whole pot, this way things don't lose their chemistry.
It will form NAC and this chemical may help you. It can help to protect the mitichondria in the body. It also helps break up stuff in the lungs and the added sulfur in the blood helps to keep it from agglutinating. The veggies at the end also load it up with minerals and the boiling of the initial veggies helps keep the temp of the boiling water below 185 which retains many vitamins. There is a lot more to this including Beta blockers and Tyromines to raise brain chemicals and adrenalines. The celery gives curcumin which helps the body regulate BP. The glutamates are mostly bound so there shouldn't be a problem with that....Use Kikkoman soy sauce, don't use the fake soy sauces.

Yeegads! That much coffee is ridiculous, back off on that! And 'angina' is not a virus. I'm not sure what country you're in or if English is a second language to you, but start doing some medical research and educate yourself.
